DOS ODI Installation Guide for Packet Driver Environments
----------------------------------------

Most environments which require a Clarkson-type packet
driver can be supported with the DOS ODI driver, emxsa.COM,
used in conjunction with an ODI-Packet Driver shim module
from Novell.

The Novell ODI-Packet Driver shim version 2.0, called
ODIPKT.COM (Copyright Daniel D. Lanciani 1991-1993.
All rights reserved), is freely available on this diskette in
\DOSODI, and from Novell's "Novell User" CompuServe forum
(GO NOVUSER) as ODIPKT.ZIP, and also from Novell's FTP site
(ftp://ftp.novell.com/pub/netwire/novuser/02/dosodi.zip).

The ODIPKT.ZIP archive file contains the file  ODIPKT.COM,
the ODI-Packet Driver shim module.

The following instuctions will help you install and use
ODIPKT.COM.

     1.   Unzip the ODIPKT.ZIP archive:
     
               PKUNZIP ODIPKT
     
     2.   Copy ODIPKT.COM to your \NWCLIENT directory (or
          the directory that contains LSL.COM and emxsa.COM,
          if you are using a different directory name).
     
               Copy ODIPKT.COM C:\NWCLIENT
     
     3.   Make sure your \NWCLIENT\NET.CFG file contains the
          following lines (indents are important;
          capitalization does not matter):
     
          NOTE: This example assumes you are using IPXODI
          (the IPX protocol), in addition to ODIPKT.
     
               LINK SUPPORT
                    Buffers 6 1600 (required for ODIPKT)
     
               LINK DRIVER emxsa
                    frame ethernet_ii (required for ODIPKT)
                    frame ethernet_802.2 (required for IPXODI)
     
               Protocol IPX
                    Bind #2 (binds IPXODI to 2nd frame type listed
                             in the LINK DRIVER emxsa section)
     
     4.   Make sure your AUTOEXEC.BAT contains the following
          lines to automatically load ODIPKT.COM at startup.
          Or, run these commands from the DOS prompt:
     
               c:\nwclient\lsl.com
               c:\nwclient\emxsa.com
               c:\nwclient\odipkt.com
               c:\nwclient\ipxodi.com (required for IPXODI)
     
     5.   Now, you can load your packet driver software
          application at the DOS prompt. Example:
     
               c:\samplapp\samplapp.exe
