    There are two methods for running the IPX SHELL program. They are
    described below.

    METHOD 1:
    ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
         If the DLKPCI.SYS program is used, the following statement must be
          included in your CONFIG.SYS file:

                DEVICE = DLKPCI.SYS [/option] <packet_int_no>

          <packet_int_no> is the software interrupt vector number used
                          by the packet driver program. This can be from
                          96 to 128.

          /d              Delay Initial - The driver program will not
                                          initialize the network interface card
                                          until the packet driver program is
                                          accessed by its upper layer program.

          /w              The /w parameter is for use only in the Windows
                                          environment.

          See \PKTDRV\README.TXT for addition parameters


         Modify the content of AUTOEXEC.BAT to add DPDIPX statement:

                >DPDIPX
                >NETX
                ><change to last driver>
                >LOGIN <username>

    METHOD 2:
    ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
         If the DLKPCI.COM program is used, follow these steps:

         Execute DLKPCI.COM by typing:

                >DLKPCI [/option] <packet_int_no>
                >DPDIPX
                >NETX
                ><change to last driver>
                >LOGIN <username>

          <packet_int_no> is the software interrupt vector number used by the
                          packet driver program. This can be from 96 to 128.

          /d              Delay Initial - The driver program will not initialize
                          the network interface card until the packet driver
                          program is accessed by its upper layer program.

          /w              The -w parameter is for use only in the Windows
                          environment.
