Installing Super-Client Driver
The super-Client driver is usually included with a Card and Socket Service driver
on most notebooks. For example, CardSoft
TM from SystemSoft or PC Card Manager
from Phoenix Technologies. Each of these software use different methods for
configuring super-client drivers. You should consult your documentation for
detailed information about how to set up your system.
For SystemSoft ’s CardSoft, we have included a card library file reliaeth.clb on the
distribution diskette. This file contains information that super-client software need
to enable the card. For other Card and Socket Services software, you will have to
configure the driver settings manually. The card parameter for your Ethernet
adapter card are:
Card ID 1: =PCMCIA LAN=
Card ID 2: Ethernet
Card ID 3: A
Memory Area 1:
Not Used
Memory Area 2: Not Used
I/O Port A: port 300, size 16, 8 bit
I/O Port B: port 310, size 16, 16 bit
IRQ: 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, or 15
Option register: 20
Network Driver installation
The adapter drivers for network operating systems normally fall into one of two
categories:
ODI driver, for Novell Netware
NDIS driver, for most other operating systems
Both ODI and NDIS driver are included on the diskette accompanies your PCMCIA
adapter package. We encourage you to use these drivers although you can use any
NE2000 compatible driver. This section explains how to manually configure the
PCMCIA Ethernet card.
ODI Driver Installation
To install your ODI driver and use your adapter on a Novell network, you will need
the following files:
LSL.COM
IPXODI.COM
PCMODI.COM
NETX.COM or VLM.EXE
NET.CFG (optional)
The first four files are included with the Novell NetWare workstation software. The
NET.CFG file contains configuration information which is accessed by the adapter
driver.
NET.CFG
It may be necessary to create or modify your NET.CFG file to reflect your
adapter’s resources setting. The following parameters are used in the LINK
DRIVER PCMODI
section of the NET.CFG file:
PORT value This parameter specifies the I/O base address. Valid
address are 300, 320, 340 and 360.
INT Value This parameter specifies the interrupt (IRQ) used by the
adapter. Valid entries are 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, and 15.
FRAME type This parameter specifies the Ether frame types supported.
Valid type are:
ETHERNET_802.3 (Novell 3.x networks)
