NOTE: This driver is not for use as a NetWare* Server Driver on 4.10 or below, unless the NetWare server NLMs have been updated to the 3.30 Assembly Specification. Also, be sure that 3.12 and 4.x servers have been updated with latest operating system patches from Novell.

Refer to the appropriate section for either the Windows* 95 or DOS/Windows 3.1x Client 32 installation.

General Installation of Client 32 with Windows* 95

The Novell* archives used for this installation were:
C3295N_1.EXE v2.1 02/05/96
C3295D.EXE 07/19/96 (latest patch)

Prerequisites:

• Microsoft's* Windows* 95 operating system installed.
• NetWare Client 32 for Windows* 95 archive file and patch have been extracted onto the computer's hard drive.
• Access to the Windows* 95 CD or CAB files, since the Client 32 installation will ask for it.

1. Make sure Plug and Play is disabled on the adapter. To change this default, boot to Command line mode or MS DOS and run SoftSet2.
   
   
2. Copy the supplied EPRO.INF and EPRO.LAN onto a diskette.
   
   
3. Open the Network configuration screen (My Computer/Control Panel/Network/Configuration). Look for any reference to the Intel EtherExpress PRO/10 ISA adapter. Highlight each one with the mouse and click on "remove". When all instances of the adapter are gone, click on OK and allow the machine to restart.
   
   
4. As Windows* 95 is restarting, if it displays the message "Windows has found new hardware and is installing software for it", then Plug and Play is still enabled on the adapter. Go back to step number 1.
   
   
5. Run the SETUP.EXE program for Client 32. It is located in the \ENGLISH subdirectory of the Client 32 software.
   
   
6. On the NetWare* Client 32 Installation screen, do not check the option to upgrade NDIS drivers to ODI automatically. Select start.
   
   
7. Select the "have disk" option on the Select Device screen. Enter the drive and directory where the EPRO.LAN and EPRO.INF files are located. Although PRO/10 ISA drivers ship with Client 32, the ones included in archive E10CL32, are newer.
   
   
8. Highlight the non Plug and Play driver.
   
   
9. On the PRO/10+ Properties screen, set the I/O address to what it was set in SoftSet2.
   
   
10. On the Recommended NetWare Client 32 properties screen, set the appropriate settings for the version of NetWare you are using.
    
    
11. The Client 32 installation program will copy files. It may ask for the source of the Windows 95 installation files. Click OK and then enter the correct path to the files.
    
    
12. The Client 32 installation will finish, and you must restart in order for the changes to become effective.

• If you receive the message, "EPRO.LAN did not remain resident" when starting Windows 95, verify that Plug and Play is turned off on the adapter and that you have installed the non-Plug and Play version of the driver.

1. From the Novell* NetWare* Client 32 software, run INSTALL.EXE.
   
   
2. Select the NetWare Client 32 products you want to install on your workstation from the list:
   
   
   [X] NetWare Client 32 for DOS
   [X] NetWare Client 32 for Windows
   [  ] NetWare TCP/IP protocol stack
   [  ] NetWare IP (TCP/IP Required)
   [  ] Desktop SNMP
   [  ] HOSTMIB for SNMP (SNMP Required)
   [  ] NetWare TSA for SMS
   
   Note - "NetWare Client 32 for DOS" and "NetWare Client 32 for Windows" are usually selected by default.
   
   
3. From the Customize Support for Windows menu, specify if you want to use multiple country codes or if you want to set the shared Windows path. The default for both of these is NO.
   
   
4. From the Select LAN Driver Type menu, select "32-bit LAN drivers".
   
   
5. From the 32-Bit Network Board Drivers menu, select "USER SPECIFIED 32 BIT DRIVER"
   
   
6. From the Insert the Driver Disk menu, insert the disk with the Intel EtherExpress EPRO.LAN and EPRO.LDI, and then specify the path to those drivers.
   
   
7. From the 32-Bit Network Board Drivers menu, select the "Intel EtherExpress™ PRO/10+ LAN Adapter". DO NOT use the option specifying "Plug and Play enabled".
   
   
8. Specify the following settings for the Intel EtherExpress LAN adapter, making sure the Base I/O Port matches the setting in SoftSet2:

   Parameter Base I/O Port Frame Type

   Default PORT 300 Ethernet_802.2 Ethernet_802.3

   Note - The default settings will work for most installations. If you use multiple frame types, please see Hints and Tips section below.
   
   
9. From the Installation Configuration Summary, verify the default settings for Client 32 are correct, or modify as necessary.
   
   Modify AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS [YES]
   
   

   Client Directory: Windows Directory: LAN driver type: LAN driver:

   C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32 C:\WINDOWS 32-bit LAN drivers Intel EtherExpress™ PRO/10 LAN Adapter

   
   
10. Novell NetWare will now copy the files to your workstations and modify the configuration files to match your selected configuration.

1. Check for a LASTDRIVE statement in the CONFIG.SYS file. You must have LASTDRIVE=Z in CONFIG.SYS when using Client 32.
   
   
2. Verify that you have FIRST NETWORK DRIVE = F in the NET.CFG file under the NetWare DOS Requester section.
   
   Note: NET.CFG is position sensitive, so be careful to indent lines with one space or one tab as shown above in the example.
   
   
3. Verify that the EtherExpress adapter passes the diagnostics test by running SOFTSET2.EXE on the EtherExpress driver disk. If the adapter fails diagnostics it will not function correctly running Client 32.
   
   
4. If you get the message listed below when the driver is loading, you have Plug and Play enabled on the adapter and/or are using the Plug and Play option. Disable Plug and Play on the adapter and reinstall Client 32 using the non - Plug and Play driver.
   
   

   "Plug and Play is activated on this adapter. You must use the slot parameter to specify a Plug and Play adapter when used in a NetWare Server."
