TokenExpress Adapter Driver Installation For UNIX: SCO, UNIVEL, Interactive

Installing and using the UNIX drivers

Before you begin

  1. Install and configure the TokenExpress adapter according to the instructions in the Intel TokenExpress LAN Adapters: Installation and Configuration Guide. Write down the configuration settings assigned to the adapter; you'll be asked to supply them when installing the driver.

  2. Make sure you have the correct driver disk from this packet. Check the label for your version of UNIX and your TokenExpress adapter. Also, if you're unfamiliar with basic UNIX operations, have a copy of your UNIX system documentation handy.

Installing the drivers

This document includes instructions on installing the drivers for the following UNIX operating systems:

  • SCO UNIX V Release 3.2.4 (Open Desktop 2.0)

  • Univel UNIX System V Release 4.2 (UnixWare)

  • Interactive UNIX Release 3.2 Version 3.0

Note: UnixWare 2.0 driver can either be a native UNIX driver or a transmogrified NetWare server driver. Intel will be providing a transmogrified driver for our adapter and they will be available on our offline services once they have completed testing. Currently do not have an anticipated date for availability.

If you get an error message If you get an error message from the UNIX driver, see "Error messages for UNIX driver software" listed below for explanations and a list of possible solutions.

Installing The Driver Software For SCO UNIX System V Release 3.2.4 Networks (Open Desktop 2.0)

To install the driver software

  1. Log in as root and type this at the UNIX command prompt:

    custom <enter>

    If you plan on using Drive 1 of this computer for the driver disk, include after the custom command:

    -m /dev/rfd1

  2. From the main menu, choose "Install," then "A new product," then "Entire Product."

  3. When the program prompts you, insert the Intel adapter driver disk and press <enter>. The program notifies you that the driver will be installed. Press <enter> to continue with the installation.

  4. After the files are installed, the program asks if you want to relink the kernel. Answer "No" to postpone the rebuild until after you have set up the driver.

  5. Quit from each submenu until the UNIX prompt is displayed. Remove the disk from the drive and continue with the next procedure.

To rebuild the UNIX kernel

  1. Type at the UNIX command prompt:

    netconfig <enter>

  2. The program asks if you want to install or remove the driver. Choose Install.

  3. The program asks a series of questions about the adapter's configuration. Make sure the settings you specify are the settings that were used to configure the board.

    Note: When specifying the DMA channel for the EISA 16/4 board, enter -1.

    A message appears saying that the driver is being activated.

  4. The program asks if you want to relink the kernel. Answer "Yes." It takes several minutes to build the kernel. Then, the program asks if you want the kernel to boot by default and if you want the kernel environment rebuilt. Answer "Yes" to each of these questions.

  5. After the kernel is set up, make sure that the driver information contained in /etc/strcf and /etc/rc2.d/S85tcp is correct. If any information is missing or different from the examples below, use an editor to modify the file.

    If you're installing the driver for the EISA/32 adapter, substitute xtr for otr.

    • The boot macro section near the end of /etc/strcf should contain this line:

      cenetb ip /dev/otr otr 0

      If you have multiple adapters installed, the file should also contain these lines:

      cenetb ip /dev/otr otr 1 (for a second adapter)

      cenetb ip /dev/otr otr 2 (for a third adapter)

    • The Start action at the beginning of /etc/rc2.d/S85tcp should contain this line:

      ifconfig otr0 hostname -trailers

      If you have multiple adapters installed, the file should also contain these lines:

      ifc

      ifconfig otr2 hostname3 -trailers (for third adapter)

      Where hostname is a unique name assigned to this adapter. You must specify this name preceded by the internet address in the /etc/hosts file. For example, 128.215.1.164 hostname

      Make sure you enter the same hostname in /etc/rc2.d/S85tcp and /etc/hosts.

    • Shut down the system and restart your computer.

    • Once the system is up, log in as root and enter this command to verify the presence of the driver:

      netstat -i <enter>

      The driver is listed as otr0 (for the first adapter), otr1 (for the second adapter), or otr2 (for the third adapter).

      If you're using the EISA/32 adapter, the driver is listed as xtr instead of otr.

      For more information

      At the command prompt, type man otr or man otrstat.

      (For the EISA/32, type man xtr or man xtrstat.)

Installing The Driver Software For Univel Unix System V Release 4.2 Networks (Unixware)

First time installation of the driver software.

If your computer already has the driver installed, follow the instruction below titled "If the driver is installed already."

  1. Log in as root and type this command at the UNIX command prompt:

    pkgadd -d diskette1 <enter>

    If you plan on using Drive 1 for the Intel disk, specify diskette2 instead of diskette1 at the command prompt.

  2. When the program prompts you, insert the Intel driver disk and type

    Go <enter>

  3. The program asks if you want to install all the packages contained on the disk. Press <enter> to install all the packages.

  4. The program asks a series of questions about the adapter's configuration. Make sure the settings you specify are the settings that were used to configure the board.

    Note: When specifying the DMA channel for the EISA board, select "None."

  5. The program now rebuilds the UNIX kernel. This may take a few minutes. Once it builds the kernel, remove the Intel disk and type q (for quit).

  6. Make sure that the driver information contained in the files /etc/confnet.d/netdrivers and /etc/confnet.d/inet/interface is correct. If any information is missing or incorrect, use an editor to modify the file.

    If you're installing the driver for the EISA/32 adapter, substitute xtr for otr.

    • * /etc/confnet.d/netdrivers should contain these line(s):

      otr0 inet (for first adapter) otr1 inet (for second adapter) otr2 inet (for third adapter)

    • /etc/confnet.d/inet/interface should contain this line:

      ::/dev/otr0:-trailers

    If you have multiple adapters installed, the file should contain these lines:

    otr:1:hostname1:/dev/otr1:-trailers otr:2:hostname2:/dev/otr2:-trailers
    where hostname is a host name different to and separate from the nodename/UNIX name of the machine.

  7. Shut down the system and restart your computer.

  8. Once the system is up, log in as root and enter this command to verify the presence of the driver:

    netstat -i <enter>

    The driver is listed as otr0 (for the first adapter), otr1 (for the second adapter), or otr2 (for the third adapter).

    If you're using the EISA/32 adapter, the driver is listed as xtr instead of otr.

If the driver is installed already

You need to remove the driver from the kernel and install the driver again (specifying the total number of adapters you have). After you complete these steps, follow the procedure in the previous section, "To install the driver software for the first time."

  1. 1. Log in as root, and enter this at the UNIX prompt:

    sysadm <enter>

  2. Select Software Install & Removal.

  3. Select Remove packages.

  4. Tell the program the name of the software packages and their location when asked. The driver is listed as otr0 (only adapter), otr1 (second adapter). If you're using the EISA/32 adapter, the driver is listed as xtr instead of otr.

  5. Select Save. The program removes the package and rebuilds the kernel. This may take a few minutes.

For more information

From the /usr/ucb/man directory, type man otr or man otrstat.

(For the EISA/32, type man xtr or man xtrstat.)

Installing The Driver Software For Interactive Unix Rel3.2 V3.0 Networks

To install the driver software

If your computer already has the TokenExpress adapter driver installed, log in as root and skip to the procedure below titled "To rebuild the UNIX kernal."

  1. Log in as root and type this at the UNIX command prompt:

    sysadm installpkg <enter>

  2. The program displays a list of drives and disk sizes. Select the drive and the size disk you are using. The program prompts you to insert the driver disk.

  3. The program asks which packages you want to install. Press q then <enter> to install all the packages. Answer OK to continue with the installation.

    After the packages are installed, the program asks if you want to install another package. Answer No. The program returns to the command prompt.

  4. Remove the disk from the drive and continue with the procedure below.

To rebuild the UNIX kernel

  1. At the command prompt, type:

    sysadm software <enter>

  2. Choose Netdrvr, then Configure, then Otr0 for the first adapter, Otr1 for the second adapter, or 0tr2 for the third adapter.

    If you're using an EISA/32 adapter, select Xtr0, Xtr1, or Xtr2.

  3. The program asks a series of questions about the adapter's configuration. Make sure the settings you specify are the settings used to configure the board.

  4. The program asks if you want to build the new UNIX kernel. Answer Yes. From the Kernel Configuration menu, choose "Build" then "Build a Kernel." It may take a few minutes to build the kernel. Afterwards, the program asks for a description of the kernel (entering one is optional).

  5. From the Kernel Configuration menu, choose "Install." The program displays a list of kernels. Select the kernel you just built. (You can identify the new kernel by the date and time displayed.) Then choose "Install."

  6. The program asks if you want to shut down the system. Do not shut it down. Instead, quit out of each submenu until the Software menu appears.

  7. Set up the driver for TCP/IP.

    • Choose "TCPIP," then "HBTCP," then "Addinterface."

    • Choose "Add a third party Ethernet driver." Even though it says Ethernet*, this is the correct option.

    • The program asks for the driver name, hostname, netmask, and broadcast address. Enter the settings appropriate for your setup.

      For an ISA 16s or EISA 16/4 adapter, the driver name is otr0 (only adapter), otr1 (second adapter) or otr2 (third adapter). For an EISA/32 adapter, the driver name is xtr0 (only adapter), xtr1 (second adapter) or xtr2 (third adapter). The hostname can be found in the /etc/host file. After entering your settings, type q to Quit.
    • Quit out of each submenu until the root prompt appears.

  8. Shut down the system and restart the computer. The driver installation is complete.
