Using the WSUPGRD Utility

Using WSUPGRDE to Upgrade Network Board Drivers

Use SYSCON for NetWare 2 and NetWare 3 workstations. Use the NetWare

Administrator graphical utility or the NETADMIN text utility for NetWare 4

workstations. All three procedures are documented in this section.

If this utility is loaded from a system login script, all of the client

workstations that log in to this server must have drivers with the same name.

If this is not the case, users have to run WSUPGRD from the DOS command

line supplying the path to and the name of the IPX driver on their respective

client workstations.

Using SYSCON

This utility is used only with NetWare 2 and NetWare 3 networks.

For NetWare 4 networks, use the NetWare Administrator or NETADMIN

utility to edit your login script. See “Using NetWare Administrator” or

“Using NETADMIN” for information.

Prerequisites

7 or later, DR DOS® 5 or later, MS-DOS 3 or later, or PC-DOS 3 or later
