If you are not sure whether you are upgrading the current version of PC-NFS
on your SunIPC, ask your system administrator.
@@target
You can install PC-NFS either on a hard disk or on a diskette.

When you install to a diskette, only a subset of PC-NFS utilities are copied
to the diskette because there is not enough disk space for the entire product.

To customize your system diskette or install auxiliary PC-NFS utilities to
another drive, refer to the PC-NFS User's Guide.

The CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files on your target drive are modified
as part of the installation.
@@upgrade
Each set of PC-NFS product diskettes is contains a unique serial number; you
assume this serial number the first time you install the product.

You should preserve this original serial number whenever you upgrade to new
releases of the software. You can do this by choosing the Upgrade option each
time you install new versions of the product.

When you request an upgrade, the installation program attempts to find the
current copy of the product, and preserve its serial number.

Answer Y if you already have PC-NFS installed and wish to upgrade it. Your
current serial number will be preserved.

Answer N if you are installing PC-NFS for the first time.

The interrupt to use is typically determined from the printer port
that you have chosen. For port 1 (LPT1), the interrupt number is
usually 7.

the correct interrupt setting.

@@other_help
You may choose to use a communication adapter supplied by a vendor other than
Sun.

Install a driver for the adapter by following the instructions supplied by
the vendor. Most instructions describe how to specify a line or lines to add
to the CONFIG.SYS file.
These lines typically start up adapter driver software, making it possible to
use the adapter to access a network.

If the instructions direct you to add a single line to CONFIG.SYS, you can
type it here, and PC-NFS will add it to the CONFIG.SYS file located on the
boot disk or diskette you use to start your system when you run PC-NFS.

@@SLIPport
PC-NFS supports serial communication using either the COM1 or COM2 serial
port. Many PCs have one built-in COM port called COM1.

If you add a multifunction board with a COM port or an internal modem this
is usually called COM2.

PC-NFS uses port 1 by default
.
Enter the number of the port you wish to use; either 1 or 2.

@@SLIPbaud
PC-NFS can operate over serial lines at speeds of 1200, 2400, 4800 and
9600 baud. The default speed used for a direct (hard-wired) connection is
9600; 1200 baud is the default speed used for a dial-up (modem) connection.

When you use a dial-up connection, select the highest speed that can be
supported reliably (without errors) by both the modem attached to your PC
and the modem attached to the server system. The CONNECT program has the
capability to make use of automatic speed selection when available at the
the server.

If you install a board driver provided by some other vendor select the
"Other" choice from the list. This program will prompt you for the information
required to install its driver.

An NDIS driver is a link level device driver written to the interface
specified by Microsoft Corp. NDIS is an abbreviation for
Network Driver Interface Standard.

@@SERIALHELP
PC-NFS supports the use of a serial communication line connected in one of
two possible modes.
The connection may be either:

        Direct- a wire connects a COM port on your PC to a serial
                communications port on a server system.
    Dialup- a modem is attached to the COM port of your PC, and you dial
                up to a modem attached to a communication port on a server
        system.

Serial line communication is performed using the SLIP (Serial Line IP)
protocol, and the server must be running software providing SLIP support.

Sun Microsystems provides the PC-NFS Packet Driver interface as a convenience
to users who wish to use a network adapter not directly supported by PC-NFS.

You may attempt to use any network adapter which comes with a Packet Driver
written to conform to the FTP Software Packet Driver Specification,
Version x.y or later. Since Sun Microsystems cannot influence or specify the
behaviour of any packet driver, this configuration is NOT SUPPORTED. Please do
not call Sun Microsystems for technical assistance.

To configure PC-NFS for use with a Packet Driver, select "Packet Driver" from
the list of drivers displayed on the screen.

At the conclusion of the installation/configuration process, DO NOT reboot
your PC. Answer N when asked whether you wish to reboot your PC, and exit to
DOS. Then install the Packet Driver for the adapter according to the
instructions which came with it, with the following precaution:

        If you need to add any lines to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file,
        be sure to add them before the "NFSRUN" line in the file.

This ensures that the Packet Driver is installed, started and initialized
BEFORE PC-NFS.

This version of the PC-NFS Packet Driver Interface is written to take
over all incoming packets, and cannot be used to share a board with
another protocol stack. If you wish to modify it to exhibit different
behaviour, the source code is (as of 12/17/89) available via anonymous
FTP from "sun.soe.clarkson.edu".

convenience to users who wish to use a network adapter not directly supported
by PC-NFS.

You may attempt to use any network adapter which comes with an NDIS MAC
driver written to conform to the Microsoft LAN Manager NDIS MAC standard,
Version 1.1 or later. Since Sun Microsystems cannot influence or specify the
behaviour of any any particular NDIS driver, only those configurations
described in your documentation are supported. All other configurations are
NOT SUPPORTED; please do not call Sun Microsystems for technical assistance.

To configure PC-NFS for use with an NDIS MAC Driver, select
"NDIS" from the list of drivers displayed on the screen.

At the conclusion of the installation/configuration process, DO NOT reboot
your PC. Answer N when asked whether you wish to reboot your PC, and exit to
DOS.

You will find that PC-NFS has created a prototype PROTOCOL.INI file called
PROTOCOL.NFS in the \LANMAN directory. Edit the PROTOCOL.NFS file to reflect
the information required for your NDIS MAC driver; then rename it as
PROTOCOL.INI. Then modify your CONFIG.SYS or AUTOEXEC.BAT files to install
the NDIS MAC driver you have chosen. Finally, edit AUTOEXEC.BAT and add the
line

      \LANMAN\NETBIND

AFTER the NDIS MAC driver is loaded but BEFORE the "NFSRUN" line. (It is also
necessary to locate the "NETBIND" line before any lines which start software
which might use the LANMAN NDIS drivers.
