following file :
RTSSRV.LAN Novell NetWare 42_5X Server Driver
RTSSRV.LDI Novell NetWare 42_5X Server Driver Installation

2. At the NetWare prompt (indicated by the Server name), run the
NWCONFIG.NLM program by typing:
server name: LOAD NWCONFIG <Enter>
3. Select " Driver options " and press <Enter>.
4. Select " Configure network drivers " and press <Enter>.

Installation Notes:
-------------------
1.Installing Multiple LAN Adapters:
The keyword "SLOT" is provided for multiple LAN adapters in a
single server by the driver RTSSRV.LAN. So, add EtherID in LOAD
commands. For example:
LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A SLOT=1
BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_B SLOT=2
BIND IPX TO LAN_B NET=22
2. The keyword "MEDIUMTYPE" is provided for specifying adapter's speed
(10M/100M) and duplex mode(half/full), add MEDIUMTYPE in
LOAD commands.
MEDIUMTYPE=AUTO : AUTO NEGOTIATION
MEDIUMTYPE=10HALF : 10M SPPED AND HALFDUPLEX MODE
MEDIUMTYPE=10FULL : 10M SPPED AND FULLDUPLEX MODE
MEDIUMTYPE=100HALF : 100M SPPED AND HALFDUPLEX MODE
MEDIUMTYPE=100FULL : 100M SPPED AND FULLDUPLEX MODE
For example:
LOAD RTSSRV FRAME=Ethernet_802.2 NAME=LAN_A SLOT=1
MEDIUMTYPE=100FULL BIND IPX TO LAN_A NET=11
