		     Etherlink Server 10/100 PCI
		         3C98X NIC Family
               NetWare Server Driver Installation Notes


Netware 4.2
===========

Service Pack 6 or higher is required to support driver

Netware 5.0
===========

Service Pack 2 or higher is required if hardware checksumming is 
enabled.

Known Issues
============

Server Abend during driver unload
---------------------------------

1. If you are running 3C98x driver on Netware 4.x and 5.0, you should
load ODINEB.NLM before loading 3C98x driver otherwise server may 
abend. This problem is fixed in Netware 5.1 release.

2. If you are using the DynamicAccess Advanced Features i.e.SE.NLM, 
you should not use NWIP or the server will abend.
