CHAPTER 6: NETWARE DRIVER SOFTWARE This chapter provides information about the Novell NetWare driver software. This chapter also describes how to: • Verify the NetWare pre-installation requirements • Install the driver software in the NetWare environment • Modify Driver properties during the driver software installation Because network administrators can use more than one method to install device drivers on a NetWare server, this chapter does not provide detailed installation instructions for each method. Each method is briefly described in Table 6-1. Table 6-1.
