Updating the PC Startup Files

This sample procedure describes how to modify the
PROTOCOL.INI and CONFIG.SYS PC startup files to load the
NDIS drivers for a PC running LAN Manager.

1 Create a LANMAN subdirectory from the root of your

boot disk using the following command:

MD \LANMAN

2 Build a PROTOCOL.INI file in the LANMAN subdirectory.

The protocol manager, PROTMAN.DOS, places the
PROTOCOL.INI file in the LANMAN subdirectory. The
PROTOCOL.INI file contains information about the protocol
manager, NDIS transport protocol, and your network adapter.

The following sample PROTOCOL.INI file uses NetBEUI (2.0)
as the NDIS transport protocol with 3Com drivers.

[PROTOCOL MANAGER]
DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$

[NETBEUI_XIF]
DRIVERNAME = NETBEUI$
BINDINGS = TLNK3_NIF

[TLNK3_NIF]
DRIVERNAME = TLNK3$

3 If you have not already done so, copy the 3Com DOS NDIS

driver (TLNK3.DOS) into the LANMAN subdirectory.

The NDIS driver is located in the \NDIS\DOS subdirectory on
the TokenDisk diskette.

4 Add the following lines to your CONFIG.SYS file (located

in the root directory of your boot disk):

DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\PROTMAN.DOS/I:C:\LANMAN
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\TLNK3.DOS
DEVICE = C:\LANMAN\<PROTOCOLDRIVER>.DOS

If you are using DOS 6.0, you must use the Microsoft Protocol
Manager version 2.0 and not the 3Com Protocol Manager.

Substitute the actual DOS PROTOCOL driver name, if
appropriate, for PROTOCOLDRIVER.DOS.
