      NetWare OS/2 ODI Client Driver Installation Notes for Artisoft's
      NodeRunner Pro(TM) LAN Adapter

         Location of Driver:     \OS2\EPROODI.SYS
      
      
      Sample Configuration Files
      --------------------------
      
      CONFIG.SYS (will contain)
         
         DEVICE=C:\NETWARE\EPROODI.SYS
      
      NET.CFG
         
         LINK DRIVER EPROODI
              PORT xxx
              FRAME ETHERNET_802.3
              FRAME ETHERNET_802.2
      
      
      General Installation
      --------------------
      
      NOTE:    If you are running IBM OS/2* 2.0 or OS/2 2.1, you will
               need to have the OS/2 Requester version 2.01 or later
               (available from Novell).
      
      If you have a Plug and Play BIOS, make sure you DISABLE Plug and
      Play on your adapter using NProSet (Change Adapter Configuration,
      Advanced Options menu). OS/2 doesn't support Plug and Play (it
      doesn't support a Configuration Manager). As a result, OS/2 may not
      be able to find your adapter if Plug and Play is enabled.
      
      1  Run Novell's INSTALL utility on the OS/2 requester disk and
         follow Novell's instructions. When asked to enter the name of
         the network interface driver enter: EPROODI.SYS.
      
      2  Choose the session support you need. This is based on your
         configuration. See the NetWare Requester manual if you need
         help.
      
      3  Save the configuration.
      
      4  When asked to enter the path and filename for the driver, insert
         the driver disk in drive A and enter: A:\OS2\EPROODI.SYS.
      
      5  When the installation section is complete, select
         "configuration" from INSTALL's main menu, then select "this
         workstation". This will allow you to modify the NET.CFG file.
      
      NOTE:    The default frame type for EPROODI.SYS is 802.2. If you
               are using the 802.3 frame type, you have to include a
               frame statement in the NET.CFG file. See the NET.CFG
               example above.
      
      
      Hints and Tips
      --------------
      
      1  Verify Driver Loaded Properly:
      
         In the Config.sys file, put a "fake" device=xxx statement
         following the EPROODI.SYS line. The screen will stop and you can
         check for error messages.
      
      2  Error message "not getting a connection ID":
      
         This OS/2 error usually results from a frame type mismatch.
         Ensure the NetWare server (type CONFIG at console) and this
         workstation (review NET.CFG file) are loading the same frame
         types.
      
      3  NET.CFG Options:
      
         PORT - This is the base I/O address of the adapter. If the port
         option is not present, it will try to load at I/O 300. If the
         board is not at 300, it will return with an error message
         stating board not found.
      
         INT - The system IRQ for the adapter to use. This option is only
         used as a reminder which IRQ the board is set for. It does not
         cause the driver to override the EEprom contents. The adapter
         supports IRQ's 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12.
      
         NODE ADDRESS - This is the ethernet node address for the
         adapter.
      
         Syntax:
              
              NODE ADDRESS 00A0C9123456
      
         where 00A0C9123456 is the adapter's ethernet address.
      
         This is optional. If it is not present, the driver will use the
         value in the EEprom on the adapter. If it is present the driver
         will use this value even if it differs from the EEprom contents.
      
         This is Novell's node address override feature. To comply with
         Novell's multicast specification, the second digit of the
         overriding address should be a 2, 6, A or E.
