PC Server 520 - Triple PCI Lanstreamer fails NetWare Client login

Applicable to: World-Wide

SYMPTOM:
NetWare clients may not be able to login to the Server or may experience data miscompares under heavy LAN loads.

PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
All of the following must be true for this Tip to apply:

-The System is a PC Server 520 type 8641-Mxx (Micro Channel).
-The Triple PCI LANStreamer FRU# p/n25H6305 is configured as the Primary LAN Adapter in the Server.
-The PCI ServeRaid Adapter FRU# p/n76H6875 or p/n06H9334 is configured in the server.
-The server is running Novell NetWare 4.0 , 4.01 , 4.1 , 4.11

FIX:
1. Obtain the latest LAN driver and associated NetWare loadable modules (.NLM) from the IBM BBS/WEB (download TRPTLS2.EXE). Create the diskette from the image file located on the IBM BBS (919-517-0001) or the IBM WEB site (WWW.US.PC.IBM.COM). The file is a self-extracting executable file. Upon creating the diskette, the LAN driver and NLM's will be located in the a:\novell\netware directory.

2. Apply the latest LAN drivers and associated NLM's as described in steps 4-6 located on pages 19-20 of the Triple PCI LANStreamer manual p/n25H6321.

3. Down, Exit, and restart the server.

Note: For NetWare 4.11, apply ONLY the latest LAN driver.
