# Novell NetWare* ODI Client Driver for IBM OS/2*

- Requirements

- Installation Instructions

- Tips

- Sample Files

## Requirements

1. The latest version of the Novell NetWare Requester* for IBM OS/2* (including Install). If running IBM OS/2 2.0, 2.1, or Warp* - you need OS/2 Requester ver 2.01 (or later).

2. The PRO/100+ adapter OS/2 ODI driver from the Intel adapter CD at \OS2\E100BODI.SYS. See Making an installation disk for more information.

## Installation Instructions

1. Run the INSTALL that ships with Novell's OS/2 requester. If asked for the name of the network interface driver, enter E100BODI.SYS.

2. Choose the session support you need for your configuration. See the "NetWare Requester for OS/2" manual if you need help.

3. Save the configuration.

4. When asked for the path and filename for the driver, insert the Intel adapter disk into the drive and press <Enter>.

5. After completing installation, choose Configuration from the main menu. Then choose This Workstation. This allows you to modify the NET.CFG file, which must reside in the root directory.

   | NOTE: The default frame type for E100BODI.SYS is 802.2. If you're using the 802.3 frame type, you have to include a FRAME statement in the NET.CFG file and list the 802.3 FRAME type first.

## Tips (OS/2 ODI)

- To verify the driver loaded properly In the CONFIG.SYS file, add an invalid device=xxx statement after theE100BODI.SYS line. This will cause a screen scrolling pause so you can check for error messages.

- The Error message "not getting a connection ID" appears when there is a frame type mismatch or cable disconnect.
