Installing the NetWare Client Driver
The NetWare client driver enables PCs running DOS,
Windows 3.x, or Windows for Workgroups to access
resources on a NetWare 3.x, 4.x, or 5.x network.
Use the 3Com intelligent auto install software (COMSLINK) to
install the client software and drivers for Novell NetWare 3.x,
4.x, or 5.x.
About 3Com Intelligent Auto Install Software
The 3Com intelligent auto install software automatically
configures your NIC and PC for use as a NetWare client.
The intelligent auto install software creates a
new AUTOEXEC.BAT file and saves the old file as
AUTOEXEC.3CM. It also creates a new CONFIG.SYS
file and saves the old file as CONFIG.3CM.
The 3Com intelligent auto install software does not
support Japanese versions of DOS and Windows 3.1x.
Do not use the intelligent auto install software if you are
running Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT. See
“Installing NIC Software in Windows” for procedures to
install network drivers under these operating systems.
