   How to install the Novell RPL server



Note: Be sure to set your TE-16PnP Ethernet Adapter to "NE2000" operation mode
      before using this adapter with RPL BOOT ROM. 



How to install the Novell RPL Server
------------------------------------

  1. You must create a remote boot diskette. The files on this boot diskette,
     for example, are the following:
        COMMAND  COM
        LSL      COM
        PNPODI   COM
        IPXODI   COM
        NETX     EXE
        AUTOEXEC BAT

     The AUTOEXEC.BAT file must contain these lines :
           LSL
           PNPODI
           IPXODI
           NETX

  2. Boot a workstation with at least one floppy disk drive, and log in to
     the server as SUPERVISOR.

  3. Change directory to SYS:SYSTEM

  4. With the DOS boot diskette in driver A: execute the DOSGEN utility. This
     creates a DOS boot image file named NET$DOS.SYS.

  5. Copy NET$DOS.SYS to the SYS:LOGIN directory.

  6. Copy RBOOT.RPL, ETHER.RPL to the SYS:LOGIN directory.

  7. Copy RPL.NLM to the SYS:SYSTEM directory.

     Note: It depends on file server's version.

           In the RPL developer's kit,

           for Netware 3.11,  use .\RPL\NLM\311\RPL.NLM;

           for Netware 3.12/4.x  use .\RPL\NLM\40\RPL.NLM;

  8. Edit the AUTOEXEC.NCF file in the SYS:SYSTEM directory.

     For example:

          file server name FTEST
          ipx internal net 831123

          load NE2000 port=300 int=3 name=ftest_1 frame=ETHERNET_802.2
          load NE2000 port=300 int=3 name=ftest_2 frame=ETHERNET_II
          load NE2000 port=300 int=3 name=ftest_3 frame=ETHERNET_802.3
          load NE2000 port=300 int=3 name=ftest_4 frame=ETHERNET_Snap

          bind ipx to ftest_1 net=21
          bind ipx to ftest_2 net=22
          bind ipx to ftest_3 net=23
          bind ipx to ftest_4 net=24

          ; ---------- for RPL file server -----------------
          load rpl
          bind rpl to ftest_1
          ; ---------- for RPL file server -----------------

          mount all

          load monitor

  9. Shutdown the file server, and reboot it.

 10. Using EZCFG.EXE program to configure the TE-16PnP Ethernet Card to Boot ROM
     Enable.

 11. Reboot the workstation.

 12. Now, when the file server is running, the workstation equipped with Boot
     ROM on the TE-16PnP Ethernet Card will be attached to the file server without
     any hard disk or floppy.
