DFE-650 Series Fast Ethernet PC Card User's Guide
If you de-select the checkbox, then it will be necessary for you to
run
STARTNET.BAT
manually any time that you want to enable
the notebook PC for network operation. If you want to maximize
your notebook PC's resources which will be available during off-
line operations, then de-select the checkbox (so that it is "blank").
Then remember to run
STARTNET.BAT
each time you connect
and prepare for network operations.
For the purpose of basic LAN operations, it is not necessary to
select any of the Additional Software items. If you are in doubt
whether any of the additional software items offered by this screen
should be included in your installation, then consult your LAN
administrator. It might also be useful review the help text which
you can access by choosing the Help button
When you have made your selections in the Additional Options
screen, then choose the
Next>
button to initiate the automatic
portion of the installation procedure.
When the automatic procedure is completed, SETUP will offer to
restart the computer.
In order to avoid some troublesome
diagnostics which would follow a restart at this time, it is necessary
to edit the file STARTNET.BAT before the restart. Exit SETUP.
Edit STARTNET.BAT
In Program Manager, open a DOS window. At the DOS prompt,
change active directory to the target directory (named in the
Installation Configuration Summary screen). Then use the DOS
Edit utility to edit STARTNET.BAT. For example:
C:\NOVELL\CLIENT32\> EDIT STARTNET.BAT
For each enabled frame type (four types at maximum),
STARTNET.BAT will include a line similar to this shortened
example:
LOAD C:\...\DFE650.LAN FRAME=...
