Installing or Upgrading NetWare Client Software

Running the NetWare Client Installation Program

For example, if your NetWare Client directory is NWCLIENT, the

modiﬁcation appears as follows:

@CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET.BAT

PATH=C:\NWCLIENT;%PATH%

Changes Made to Your CONFIG.SYS File

Two line are added to your client workstation’s CONFIG.SYS ﬁle to set the

LASTDRIVE and FILES setting. The modiﬁcation appears as follows:

FILES = 40

LASTDRIVE = Z

The FILES command is added only if the FILES setting is lower that 40 or

does not previously exist.

Installing Support for MS Windows

The installation program copies the necessary ﬁles for running Microsoft

(MS) Windows on your client workstation. The default path is set to

C:\WINDOWS unless the WIN.COM ﬁle is found in the DOS PATH. If the

WIN.COM ﬁle is not found in the PATH, then the default setting is no MS

Windows support.

Accept the default path unless you are running one of the following:

• MS Windows from a different local directory

See “Modifying MS Windows Conﬁguration Files on a Local Directory” for

more information.

• MS Windows from a shared network directory

This option is available to network supervisors only.

See “Modifying MS Windows Conﬁguration Files on a Network Directory” for

more information.

See “Setting Up an MS Windows Shared Network Directory for NETX and

VLM Client Workstations” for more information.

• MS Windows from a network directory

This option is for updating users’ personal areas.
