Loading NetWare Drivers During Server Restart

To automatically load the

aacraid.ham

driver during server restart,

the

startup.ncf

file (usually located in your server's startup

directory) must contain a load command line that specifies the
location of the driver and any appropriate command line options.

The syntax to load the driver is:

load [pathname]aacraid.ham slot=number [options]

For example, the command to load the driver from the c:\nwserver
directory, with the verbose= option

ON

is:

load c:\nwserver\aacraid.ham slot=2 verbose=y

Notes:

Command line options are not case sensitive.

Placing commas between command line options is
optional.
