Installing the NDIS driver for IBM LAN SERVER 4.0 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ In the OS/2 Desktop group, double-click on the MPTS icon. Click on the button. Select the "LAN adapters and protocols" option. Click on the button. Select the "Other adapters ..." option. Insert the driver diskette in Drive A or B and type the driver path: A:\\ Where PATH is the driver directory. Click on the button. Select "D-Link DE-650CT PCMCIA Ethernet Adapter", and then click on the Add button. Select "IBM OS/2 NETBIOS", and then click on the Add button. Select "IBM IEEE 802.2", and then click on the Add button. Click OK. Click Close. Click Exit. Reboot your system. Installing the NDIS driver for IBM LAN SERVER 3.0 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Install IBM OS/2 into your system, if not yet installed. Insert the NTS/2 Adapter & Protocol Support Disk in Drive A. Execute the LAPs program. Select "Install", and then specify the target drive. Select "Install" again and insert your driver diskette in Drive A. Select "Configure". Select "DE-650CT PCMCIA Ethernet Card", and then click on the Add button. Select "IBM OS/2 NETBIOS", and then click on the Add button. Select "IEEE 802.2", and then click on the Add button. Click OK. Click Exit. Click Continue. Reboot your system. Your CONFIG.SYS and PROTOCOL.INI files should reflect your card setup: \CONFIG.SYS =========== : Device=d:\IBMCOM\MACS\DE65S.OS2 : \IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI ==================== : [DE65SIBM_NIF] Drivername = DE65S$ Install the LAN Server or Requester program. For information, please refer to your IBM LAN Server "Planning and Installation" manual. Installing the NDIS driver for IBM LAN SERVER 2.0 ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Assuming that OS/2 2.0 is correctly installed and working properly, install the LAN SERVER. At this point, no network adapters must be installed in the computer. Install LAN SERVER according to the IBM installation procedure. When prompted for the adapter, select any of the adapters LAN SERVER supports. For example, "Western Digital EtherCard PLUS ...". Then, continue with the LAN SERVER installation. After successfully installing LAN SERVER, shut down OS/2 for system configuration. Do not install any network adapters yet. The OS/2 system will boot up and bring up the LAN SERVER services. The system will then display error messages since the network adapter you selected is not installed. Ignore these messages and continue with the OS/2 booting procedure. Insert the driver diskette in Drive A and copy the following files: COPY DE65S.OS2 to C:\IBMCOM\MACS COPY DE65SIBM.NIF to C:\IBMCOM\MACS\DE65SIBM.NIF In the OS/2 Desktop group, run the OS/2 system editor. You need to modify the following files: C:\CONFIG.SYS C:\IBMCOM\PROTOCOL.INI CONFIG.SYS Modifications: DEVICE=C:\IBMCOM\MACS\MACWD.OS2 to DEVICE=C:\IBMCOM\MACS\DE65S.OS2 PROTOCOL.INI Modifications: - Under the [IBMLXCFG] section, add the following line: DE65SIBM_nif = DE65Sibm.nif - Under the [NETBEUI_nif] section, change the following line: Bindings = MACWDMC_nif to Bindings = DE65SIBM_nif - Under the MAC SECTION definitions, add the following section: [DE65SIBM_nif] DriverName = DE65S$ After modifying the two files above, shut down OS/2, and turn the computer off. Install the DE-650CT. Turn on the system to start OS/2. After starting OS/2, LAN SERVER services can now successfully start without causing any errors.
