     Ethernet Remote Boot Rom for Lan Manager operation System
     =========================================================

Remote Boot Installation for LAN Manager 2.1
--------------------------------------------
Remote Boot installation on LAN Manager 2.1 may be complex.
Also, be aware that the Digital Generic Boot ROM does
not provide remote boot capability on a Microsoft OS/2 system.

There are two ways to install the remote boot software on
the LAN Manager server. You can either use Digital's
configuration utility (on the Digital Driver diskette
or download it from Digital's BBS), or edit the RPL
files manually.

Generic Boot Installation for LAN Manager 2.1
Using Digital's Configuration Utility
----------------------------------------------

1. Refer to the Microsoft LAN Manager Administrator's Guide
	Chapter 13: Booting Workstations Remotely for more
	detailed information.

	Follow the steps to setup the remote boot environment,
	but do not use the RPLMGR.EXE program to create
	the remote boot profile.

2. Select an OS/2 full screen, and change to the
	RPL subdirectory. For example, C:\LANMAN\RPL

3. Copy the RPLCFG.CMD, RPL.ACC, RPLMGR.ACC and the DE305.DOS
	from the \RPL\LANMAN subdirectory of the Digital Driver
	diskette, or from Digital's BBS to C:\LANMAN\RPL.

4. Run RPLCFG to install the remote boot software.

5. Refer to the Chapter 13 of LAN Manager Administrator's Guide.
	Follow the steps in "Managing Remote Boot".

Generic Boot Installation for LAN Manager 2.1
by Manually Editing the RPL File
---------------------------------------------

1. Refer to the Microsoft LAN Manager Administrator's Guide
	Chapter 13: Booting Workstations Remotely.  Follow the
	steps to setup the remote boot environment, but do not
	use the RPLMGR.EXE program to create a remote boot profile.
2. Select an OS/2 full screen. Make C:\LANMAN\RPL the default
	directory.
3. Copy DE305.DOS to BBLOCK\NDIS
4. Create a subdirectory BBLOCK\NETBEUI\ETHNE
5. Create DOSBB.CNF and PROTOCOL.INI files in
	BBLOCK\NETBEUI\ETHNE as shown below:
-----------------------------------------------------------
	BBLOCK\NETBEUI\ETHNE\DOSBB.CNF:

	; DOS on DE305 DIGITAL EtherWORKS ISA Adapter
	RPL BBLOCK\RPLBOOT.SYS
	LDR BBLOCK\RPLSTART.COM ~
	DAT BBLOCK\NETBEUI\ETHNE\PROTOCOL.INI
	DRV BBLOCK\RPLDISK.SYS ~ 4 M
	EXE BBLOCK\RPLPRO1.COM ~ 2 ~
	EXE BBLOCK\RPLBIND2.EXE ~ ~
	EXE BBLOCK\PROTMAN.EXE ~ ~
	EXE BBLOCK\RPLBIND1.EXE ~ ~
	DRV BBLOCK\TCPDRV.DOS /I:C:\LANMAN.DOS ~ ~
	EXE BBLOCK\NETBEUI\NETBEUI.EXE ~ 10 ~
	DRV BBLOCK\NDIS\DE305.DOS ~ ~ ~
	DRV BBLOCK\PROTMAN.DOS /I:C:\LANMAN.DOS ~ M

	BBLOCK\NETBEUI\ETHNE\PROTOCOL.INI:

	[protman]
	drivername = protman$
	dynamic = yes
	priority = netbeui
	[netbeui]
	drivername = netbeui$
	bindings = ethne
	names = 5
	ncbs = 8
	packets = 20
	pipeline = 10
	sessions = 4
	stacksize = 512
	lanabase = 0
	[xnsnb]
	DRIVERNAME = XNSNB$
	BINDINGS = ethne
	MAXPROCESSES = 12
	FGTICKS = 2
	BGTICKS = 2
	MAXROUTES =
	MAXSOCKETS =
	MAXXMITDESCS =
	NONGROUPS =
	SHAREGROUPS =
	LOGINLIBRARY =
	COURIERLIBRARY =
	NETBIOSGROUPS =
	lanabase = 1
	[xnstp]
	DRIVERNAME = XNSTP$
	LOAD = XNSTP[CB]
	BINDINGS = ethne
	MAXPROCESSES = 12
	FGTICKS = 2
	BGTICKS = 2
	MAXROUTES =
	MAXSOCKETS =
	MAXXMITDESCS =
	NONGROUPS =
	SHAREGROUPS =
	LOGINLIBRARY =
	COURIERLIBRARY =
	NETBIOSGROUPS =
	lanabase = 1
	[tcpip]
	DRIVERNAME = TCPIP$
	IPADDRESS0 = (TCPIP_ADDRESS)
	SUBNETMASK0 = (TCPIP_SUBMASK)
	DEFAULTGATEWAY0 = (TCPIP_GATEWAY)
	NBSESSIONS = 6
	LOAD = tcptsr[c],tinyrfc[c],emsbfr[cr]
	UNLOAD = "unloadt /notsr[dc]"
	bindings = ethne
	lanabase = 1
	[ethne]
	drivername = de305$
	;iobase = 0x300
	;irq = 0x3
---------------------------------------------------------------

6. Edit the RPL.MAP in the current directory.

  a. Add the lines below the description of "boot block records"

  yyyyyyyyyyyy BBLOCK\NETBEUI\ETHNE\DOSBB.CNF 2 6 A ~ DOS
  ~Digital~EtherPair  08002B ~ ,,, ~ RDOSA ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

  b. Insert the lines before the description of "profile and
	  workstation records added by rplmgr"

 08002B?????? ???????? D FITS\DEFAULT (RPL_SERVER_NAME)
 S ~ ~ ~,,, ~ RDOSA ~ DEFAULT *~New~Digital~EtherPair~* ~ ~ ~

7. Edit the RPLMGR.INI in the current directory.
	Insert the following section before the OS/2 description block.

	[configuration]
	name = DOS330A
	os = DOS330
	dirname = DOS
	dirname2 = DOS330
	bblink = RDOSA
	fitfileshared = fits\dos330
	fitfilepersonal = fits\dos330p
	comment = DOS 3.30 Digital EtherPair
	adapter = 08002B??????
	[configuration]
	name = DOS401A
	os = DOS401
	dirname = DOS
	dirname2 = DOS401
	bblink = RDOSA
	fitfileshared = fits\dos401
	fitfilepersonal = fits\dos401p
	comment = DOS 4.01 Digital EtherPair
	adapter = 08002B??????
  [configuration]
			  name = DOS500A
			  os = DOS500
			  dirname = DOS
			  dirname2 = DOS500
			  bblink = RDOSA
			  fitfileshared = fits\dos500
			  fitfilepersonal = fits\dos500p
			  comment = DOS 5.00 Digital EtherPair
			  adapter = 08002B??????

			 And append the following line to RPLMGR.INI
			 ; 08002B = Digital (Ethernet)

 8. Log onto the network as an administrator.
	 Stop the remote boot service. Run RPLINST.
	 Then restart remote boot service.

 9. Refer to the Chapter 13 of LAN Manager
	 Administrator's Guide. Follow "Managing Remote Boot"
	 to generate a workstation profile.
