Using Virus Scan Software with NetWare 6
When performing virus scans with Norton or McAfee software, you must
exclude the protected NSS volume named _ADMIN. Otherwise, the server
will abend.
ISA Adapters Are Not Supported on NetWare 6
For performance and scalability reasons, all ISA adapter drivers have been
removed from NetWare 6. There is a possibility that a family driver might
support adapters which run on more than one bus type (PCI and ISA). In this
case, any ISA adapter would be considered a noncertified driver and would
®
not be supported by Novell .
CardBus and Mini-PCI LAN Drivers
There are no certified CardBus or Mini-PCI drivers in NetWare 6. However,
we have included drivers for adapters that use the 3COM* 3C1556.LAN
Mini-PCI driver and drivers for XIRCOM CardBus adapters, which use the
CE3ODI.LAN driver. These drivers are located in the
DRIVERS\UNSUPDRV directory on the Operating System CD or in the
NWSERVER\DRIVERS\UNSUPDRV directory, located in the DOS partition
after installation.
IMPORTANT:
Although these drivers might work, they have been included only
for use in cases where laptop servers are needed for demonstration purposes.
They should be considered not supported by Novell. See the Readme in the
UNSUPDRV directory for details.
