Using the WSUPGRD Utility
Prerequisites
Prerequisites
A typical upgrade requires the following files in SYS:PUBLIC:
• WSUPGRD.EXE
• LSL.COM
• IPXODI.COM
• Appropriate ODI LAN drivers (for example, NE2000.COM)
• Auxiliary files
• The auxiliary files are optional but can make upgrading a complex network
easier.
• DRVRXLAT.TXT
This file is in SYS:PUBLIC. It contains one line for each ODI LAN driver
type in use on the network.
Each line has the hexadecimal hardware identification of the IPX LAN
driver, the path to the files, and the name of the corresponding ODI LAN
driver.
If no DRVRXLAT.TXT file exists or if no line with the correct hardware
identification is found in the DRVRXLAT.TXT file, then WSUPGRD looks
in the PUBLIC directory for an ODI LAN driver with the same name as the
existing IPX LAN driver.
If it fails to find an ODI driver, no upgrade is performed.
• driver_name.LDC
The .LDC files are in the same directory as the ODI LAN drivers of the same
name (driver_name.COM).
These files contain lines that are to be copied to the NET.CFG file in addition
to any lines the utility creates normally.
