Installing PeerMaster LAN Software
3. Start the server and activate the Novell NetWare operating
system at this time. “Starting Novell NetWare” on page 39
guides you through this process.
4. Load the PeerMaster adapter device drivers. Two device drivers
are provided for the PeerMaster adapter. MXPCI4BT.LAN is the
LAN device driver for the PeerMaster adapter. This device
driver enables the PeerMaster adapter to perform traditional
network functions. The other device driver, VNET.LAN, is the
virtual network device driver. This device driver enables the
PeerMaster adapter to operate in VNET Switch mode. “Loading
the Network Device Drivers” on page 40 and “Sample
AUTOEXEC.NCF Files” on page 53 guide you through this
process.
5. Update the Novell NetWare system files. The PeerMaster
adapter is shipped with the latest versions of several Novell
NetWare loadable module (NLM) files. These NLM files are
required for the proper operation of the PeerMaster adapter
under various versions of Novell NetWare. Copy these files
directly onto the Novell NetWare partition of your server.
“Updating Novell NetWare System Files” on page 46 guides
you through this process.
6. Modify the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, if desired. Update your
server startup configuration files to enable automatic loading of
your newly installed PeerMaster adapter. “Loading the
Network Device Drivers” on page 40 and “Sample
AUTOEXEC.NCF Files” on page 53 guide you through this
process.
