AutoLink Requirements

3Com's AutoLink auto installation software is designed to
automatically install all necessary NetWare DOS ODI client
software, including drivers. It also modifies the CONFIG.SYS
and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. It automatically logs on to the
server and updates the client software if your system
administrator has already configured a 3Install account on
your server.
To use the AutoLink feature to install the NetWare DOS ODI
driver, your computer must meet the following requirements:
Use the Novell NetWare 2.x, 3.1x, or 4.x network operating
system
Have only one 3C590 PCI adapter installed
Be intended for use as a NetWare DOS ODI client
If this does not describe your network environment, refer to
the appropriate section later in this chapter.
If you have a boot PROM or want to optimize driver
performance, refer to Appendix A, "Software Option Settings."
