   LANtastic 6.0 and Power Suite
                                                                    v2.00
      
      
      Installing and configuring the Artisoft NodeRunner Pro(TM)
      adapter drivers for LANtastic(R) V6.0 and LANtastic Power Suite
      ===============================================================
         
      LANtastic V6.0 and LANtastic Power Suite may be installed with
      one of the following NodeRunner Pro adapter drivers:

      1. LANtastic native driver

         This installation is the simplest and will use the least amount
         of memory. The native driver doesn't support SMB, NCP or
         HP JetDirect. 

     
      2. NDIS driver

         This driver is required if you need to use the LANtastic SMB
         client support for access to Windows for Workgoups*, Windows NT*,
         and/or IBM LAN Server* computers on your network. It's also
         needed if you want to use the HP JetDirect support feature in
         LANtastic Power Suite.


      3. ODI driver

         This driver is required if you need to use the LANtastic NCP
         client support for access to Novell NetWare* servers on your
         network. You can also use the ODI driver to support the NDIS
         features listed above in conjunction with NCP client support.


      Follow the steps in the sections below to install the driver that
      meets your networking needs.


      Native Driver installation for LANtastic 6.0 and Power Suite
      ============================================================

         Location of driver:     \LANTASTI\NPRO.EXE


      Sample configuration files below.
      ---------------------------------
      
      
      General Instructions:
      ---------------------

      If no NDIS or ODI features are selected, the LANtastic installation
      program provides the native driver, NR.EXE, for the Artisoft NodeRunner
      adapter. However, because the NodeRunner Pro adapter uses a different
      native driver (NPRO.EXE), you'll need to make a minor modification to
      complete the LANtastic installation and replace NR with NPRO.

      1. Run INSTALL.EXE or SETUP.EXE and answer the questions asked by
         the LANtastic installation program. Make certain that you don't
         select SMB client support, NCP client support or HP JetDirect
         support features. At the Adapter Selection screen, select the
         Artisoft NodeRunner adapter. Complete the installation, but don't
         reboot your computer at the end.

      2. Copy NPRO.EXE from the NodeRunner Pro Configuration diskette
         to the LANtastic program directory on your computer
         (typically C:\LANTASTI). To do so, at the DOS prompt, type:

         Copy B:\LANTASTI\NPRO.EXE C:\LANTASTI <Enter>

         where B: is the floppy drive that contains the Configuration
         diskette.

      3. Edit your C:\LANTASTI\STARTNET.BAT file and replace the NR.EXE
         command line with NPRO.EXE. The example below shows a typical
         STARTNET.BAT file.
    
             @echo off

      ODI Driver installation for LANtastic 6.0 and Power Suite
      =========================================================

        Location of driver:   \NWCLIENT\EPROODI.COM
   
   
      Sample configuration files below.
      ---------------------------------
   
   
      General Instructions:
      ---------------------

      The LANtastic installation program will install the Artisoft NodeRunner
      adapter's ODI driver (NRODI.COM), if the NCP client support feature
      is selected. To use the NodeRunner Pro adapter, simply complete the
      installation and copy the NodeRunner Pro ODI driver (EPROODI.COM) to
      your LANtastic program directory (typically C:\LANTASTI). then modify
      your STARTNET.BAT and NET.CFG files to use EPROODI instead of NRODI.

      1. Run INSTALL.EXE or SETUP.EXE from Disk 1. The LANtastic installation
         program screen appears. Answer each question and respond to each
         prompt for information, so the options are configured properly for
         your needs.

         In addition, make sure you respond to these specific prompts as
         follows:

           Select the NCP client support feature for access to NetWare
           servers on your network.

           At the Adapter Selection screen, select the Artisoft NodeRunner
           adapter. Complete the installation, but don't reboot your
           computer at the end.

      2. Copy EPROODI.EXE from the NodeRunner Pro Configuration diskette
         to the LANtastic program directory on your computer (typically
         C:\LANTASTI). To do so, at the DOS prompt, type:

         Copy B:\NWCLIENT\EPROODI.COM C:\LANTASTI <Enter>

         where B: is the floppy drive that contains the Configuration
         diskette.  

      3. Edit your C:\LANTASTI\STARTNET.BAT file and replace the NRODI.COM
         command line with EPROODI.COM. See the example below:


             @REM =================================================
             @REM LANtastic Power Suite - C:\LANTASTI\STARTNET.BAT

             IF EXIST CONNECT.BAT GOTO :CONNECT
     
             rem Otherwise set up connections specified during install.
             NET LPT TIMEOUT 10
             GOTO :CONNECT_DONE
     
             :CONNECT
             Echo Setting up LANtastic connections from CONNECT.BAT
             CALL CONNECT.BAT
     
             :CONNECT_DONE
     
             Echo ===== End LANtastic configuration =====
     
             cd \
        
      4. Edit the C:\LANTASTI\NET.CFG file and find the LINK DRIVER line
         which refers to NRODI and change it to EPROODI. Make certain that
         the PORT line is set to the I/O Base address for the NodeRunner
         Pro adapter, as shown by NPROSET. See the example below:

             PROTOCOL ODINSUP
              BUFFERED
     
             PROTOCOL IPXODI
              BIND #2
     
             PROTOCOL AI-ODI
              BIND #1
     
       ====> LINK DRIVER EPROODI  <====== Change from NRODI to EPROODI
