This file contains instructions specific for the installation and
operation of Intel's TokenExpress™ adapter driver. Refer to the
appropriate Network Operation System documentation for any NOS-specific
questions or other information.
These instructions apply to Release 5.0 of the software.
Installing and Configuring the Intel TokenExpress adapter RPL Driver for
MS LAN Manger V2.X
Note: The Intel TokenExpress EISA/32 adapter does not support RPL
when used in a workstation. The remaining installation steps are
followed when the workstation contains one of the other members of
Intel's family of TokenExpress adapters.
Introduction
This description is a supplement to the "Microsoft LAN Manager
Administrator's Guide." It's purpose is to help you prepare a LAN
Manager 2.X server for RPL of LAN Manager workstations equipped with
Intel TokenExpress adapters.
Before installing RPL support for Intel adapters, you must prepare your
server for RPL support of DOS and possibly OS/2 LAN Manager Workstations
as described in the "Microsoft LAN Manager Administrator's Guide."
The various OEM-versions of Microsoft LAN Manager 2.X may differ
somewhat in the directory structure of the RPL directory on the server.
As a result, the directory structure on your server may differ from the
directory structure assumed in the following descriptions. Translate
the suggested actions to the actual directory structure on your server.
The files to be used for support of RPL of workstations with Intel
adapters are located on the Intel Adapter Driver Diskette in the
directories \MSLANMAN\RPL and \MSLANMAN\RPL\RPL_2X.
Common DOS and OS/2 Preparation
Make \LANMAN\RPL the current directory on your server and insert the
Intel Adapter Driver Diskette into drive A. Edit the RPL.MAP file found
on your server and include the lines from the RPL.MAP file on the driver
diskette (the RPL.MAP file on the driver diskette is located in the
\MSLANMAN\RPL\RPL_2X directory).
Note that there are two types of records in the RPL.MAP file: boot block
records and default workstation records for the Intel adapter node
addresses 005500??????. You should place the two record types properly
in the RPL.MAP of the server.
The Intel boot block definition files and PROTOCOL.INI file for DOS must
be copied into the LANMAN\RPL\BBLOCK\NETBEUI\INTELTOK directory.
With LANMAN\RPL as current directory, make the INTELTOK directory as
follows:
md bblock\netbeui\inteltok
Copy the boot block definition files for DOS and OS/2 from the driver
diskette to your server as follows:
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\rpl_2X\*.cnf bblock\netbeui\inteltok
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\rpl_2X\protocol.ini bblock\netbeui\inteltok
Note: Because support of RPL for DOS workstations is a prerequisite
for RPL of OS/2 workstations, you should always carry out the following
step even if you will only be supporting RPL of OS/2 workstations.
Preparing for Default RPL of DOS Workstations
With LANMAN\RPL as current directory, copy the driver file:
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\olitok.dos bblock\ndis
Preparing RPL Manager Support for DOS Workstations
You have now installed support for RPL of DOS workstations with Intel
adapters using the default DOS operating system. If you want to create
new workstation records using the RPL manager, you should update the
RPLMGR.INI file in the LANMAN\RPL directory.
The file \MSLANMAN\RPL\RPL_2X\RPLMGR.INI on the adapter driver diskette
illustrates how to add new configuration records to RPLMGR.INI file for
supporting Intel TokenExpress adapters.
Preparing RPL of OS/2 Workstations
Note: If you have not prepared your server for the RPL of DOS
workstations, you must do so now *before* continuing.
Preparation of your server for the RPL of OS/2 workstations requires
three steps:
- Create an IntelTok driver directory in the RPL\LANMAN directory
structure.
- Create Intel-specific configuration directories in the
RPL\RPLFILES\CONFIGS directory structure.
- Update the RPLMGR.INI by adding Intel-specific configuration
records.
Creating the IntelTok Directory
With LANMAN\RPL\RPLFILES\BINFILES as the current directory, make the
IntelTok directory as follows:
md lanman\drivers\inteltok
Copy the driver files into the newly created directory by typing:
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\olitokr.os2 lanman\drivers\inteltok
Create the Configuration Directories
The CONFIG.SYS file for an OS/2 rpl workstation must have the following
characteristics in the LAN Manager section:
- The OLITOK.OS2 MAC driver must be loaded from the
LANMAN\DRIVERS\INTELTOK directory.
- The protocol manager driver must use an Intel-specific PROTOCOL.INI
file.
The CONFIG.SYS and PROTOCOL.INI files for RPL of an OS/2
workstation are typically located in subdirectories of the
rpl\rplfiles\configs directory. You should create three Intel
specific subdirectories:
os2intl\lanman for the PROTOCOL.INI file.
os2intlv for the VGA-specific CONFIG.SYS file.
os2intle for the EGA-specific CONFIG.SYS file.
- With LANMAN\RPL\RPLFILES\CONFIGS as your current directory, make
the Intel-specific directories as follows:
md os2intl
md os2intl\lanman
md os2intle
md os2intlv
Copy the configuration files into the newly created directories by
typing:
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\rpl_2X\config.ega os2intle\*.sys
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\rpl_2X\config.vga os2intlv\*.sys
copy a:\mslanman\rpl\protocol.ini os2intl\lanman
Note: That the CONFIG.EGA and CONFIG.VGA files have been obtained
from IBMTOK-specific CONFIG.SYS files on a Microsoft LAN Manager 2.1
server. You may want to compare them with your standard CONFIG.SYS to
make sure they match your configuration.
Prepare RPL Manager Support for OS/2 Workstations
New workstation records for rpl of OS/2 workstations should be created
using the RPL manager. Before proceeding, you must update the
RPLMGR.INI file in the LANMAN\RPL directory.
The \MSLANMAN\RPL\RPL_2X\RPLMGR.INI file on the adapter driver diskette
shows how to add new configuration records which enable support for
Intel TokenExpress adapters. The OS/2-specific configuration records in
the file refer to the configuration subdirectories created in the
previous step.
Run RPL Install
In order to update the access rights of the new directories created in
the previous steps, you should now run the RPL Install utility. This is
done by typing the following command:
rplinst
You are now ready to remote boot your workstations using your Intel
TokenExpress adapters.
