15. Follow the instructions in the Novell manual Create an AUTOEXEC.NCF file. In

addition to the instructions in the manual, add the following lines to the
AUTOEXEC.NCF file, immediately after the IPX INTERNAL NET statement (if
necessary, replace c:\nwserver with the actual location of the SERVER.EXE
executable):

LOAD C:\NWSERVER\NBI.NLM

LOAD C:\NWSERVER\MSM.NLM

LOAD C:\NWSERVER\TOKENTSM.NLM

LOAD C:\NWSERVER\IBMTRPO.LAN NAME=IBMLS1 DATARATE=M16

Note: There will be existing LOAD and BIND IPX statements in the

AUTOEXEC.NCF. Delete the LOAD statement (we have replaced it with
the stated LOAD C:\NWSERVER\IBMTRPO.LAN statement).

Also, make any needed modifications to the existing BIND IPX statement.
Refer to the

″Bind the Protocol to the LAN Driver″ section of the Novell manual
