APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11



This article was previously published under Q107648

This article contains information about using Windows for Workgroups with third-party products or configurations that have not been tested and are not supported by Microsoft.

If the steps or procedures described in this article do not function properly, use a supported configuration or contact the manufacturer of the third-party product for more information.

SUMMARY

The Novell ODINSUP driver allows NDIS 2 protocols (such as MS TCP/IP) to run on top of Novell ODI drivers. This is similar to the behavior of the MSODISUP driver that comes with Windows for Workgroups 3.11. The difference is that the MSODISUP driver allows only NDIS 3 protocols to run on top of it.

MORE INFORMATION

The following instructions assist you in setting up Windows for Workgroups 3.11 to run on the Novell ODINSUP driver with NetWare clients that are using Novell's VLM.EXE redirector. By doing this, you can use NDIS 2 protocols (such as MS TCP/IP and MS DLC) to run on top of the Novell ODI drivers. The steps below outline setting up Windows for Workgroups 3.11 with the MS TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and NWLink protocols in addition to Novell's real-mode IPX protocol. The network card used throughout this article is the 3COM1 3c509 Etherlink III.

Before You Begin

You should run the Novell NetWare 4.0 client installation program and have a working NetWare 4.0 client. You should also set up a working Net.cfg file in the same directory from which you load LSL.COM.

By default, NetWare 4.0 loads the network drivers in a Startnet.bat file and then "calls" this file from the Autoexec.bat file. Be sure to back up this file along with your Autoexec.bat file so that you can restore this configuration later if necessary.

Setup Instructions

  1. Install Windows for Workgroups using the Custom Setup option. In the Network Setup dialog box, select the Other option button, select Novell, and then choose the Drivers button. Select the network card driver for your adapter along with both the NetBEUI and the "IPX/SPX Compatible Transport with NetBIOS" protocols. (For the examples in this article, we chose the Etherlink III network card.) Next, in the same Network Drivers dialog box, choose Setup and select Real Mode NDIS Driver. This is important because even though you are actually running on an ODI driver with ODINSUP, Windows for Workgroups thinks you are running an NDIS driver. Choose OK and continue with Setup. Ignore the error messages about ODI drivers. After you finish Setup, you reboot your computer and start Windows by using the /N switch (WIN /N), then install MS TCP/IP according to the directions that come with the package.

    NOTE: If there are any other NDIS 2 protocols (such as MS DLC) you want to install, install them now. Also, make sure that you choose which protocol you want to be the default protocol in the Network Drivers dialog box.
  2. After completing MS TCP/IP setup, edit the System.ini file and remove the NDIS 2 driver, <ELNK3.DOS>, from the netcard= line of the [Network Drivers] section.

    NOTE: If you are using a different network card, the NDIS network card driver (<ELNK3.DOS> in the above example) will be different.
  3. Edit the Config.sys file and set LASTDRIVE=Z. This allows you to connect all available drive letters to both NetWare and Windows for Workgroups servers.
  4. If you are using a STARTNET.BAT file, remove the NET START line from the Autoexec.bat file and then edit the STARTNET.BAT file so that it contains the following network-related lines. If you are not using a STARTNET.BAT file, put these lines in your Autoexec.bat file.

          SET NWLANGUAGE=ENGLISH
          C:\WINDOWS\NET INIT (This loads protman and NDIS protocols.)
          C:\<PATH>\LSL.COM
          C:\<PATH>\<your network card's ODI MAC driver>.COM
          C:\<PATH>\ODINSUP.COM
          C:\WINDOWS\NET START NETBIND (This binds the protocols to ODINSUP.)
          C:\<PATH>\IPXODI.COM
          C:\<PATH>\VLM.EXE
              (The rest of these files are for MS TCP/IP.)
          C:\WINDOWS\UMB
          C:\WINDOWS\TCPTSR
          C:\WINDOWS\TINYRFC
          C:\WINDOWS\NMTSR.EXE
          C:\WINDOWS\EMSBFR.EXE
                            
  5. Edit the Net.cfg file and verify that it contains the following lines. If these lines don't exist, add them to the appropriate sections of the Net.cfg file. If you do not have a Net.cfg file, create one using a text editor (such as Microsoft Windows Notepad), and save it in the directory from which LSL.COM is executed. Note that some of the lines in the Net.cfg file are indented; this indentation must be maintained.

    NOTE: If you've been using ODI to attach to a Novell server at DOS and you haven't specified the parameters INT, MEM, PORT, DMA, SLOT, and so forth in the Net.cfg file, you probably don't need to add them now. However, depending on the ODI MAC driver you are using (Novell refers to this as the "MLID"), you may need to place these parameters after the FRAME lines. Additionally, list your network's frame type FIRST in the list of "FRAME ETHERNET_<xxxx>" entries (where <xxxx> will probably be <802.2>, <802.3>, or <II>).

  6. Edit the Protocol.ini file by replacing the BINDINGS= lines in the [NWLINK], [NETBEUI], [MS$NDISHLP], and [TCPIP] sections with the Novell ODI MAC driver (MLID) as follows:

       BINDINGS=<x3c509> (where <x3c509> corresponds to your ODI MLID;
                                in this case, 3c509.COM. The "x" must be
                                added if the ODI MLID filename begins with a
                                numeral.)
                            

    IMPORTANT: If the ODI MLID filename begins with a numeral, you must preface the filename with an x in the BINDINGS= statement. For example, the 3COM 3C509 network adapter card uses an ODI MLID with the filename 3C509.COM. In the Protocol.ini file, the BINDINGS= statements would need to be:

         BINDINGS=x3C509
                            

    WARNING: After you make these modifications, do NOT make any changes in the Networks dialog box of Control Panel. If you do, the Autoexec.bat, System.ini and Protocol.ini files will be overwritten. You should make backup copies of these files in case this occurs.
