Title: Loading the DOS Enhanced Redirector Into High Memory
Date: 3/7/90

Copyright 3Com Corporation, 1991.  All rights reserved.

You can load the Enhanced Redirector into 386Max (or other) high DOS
memory.  Run NETWKSTA.EXE directly instead of spawning it from NET START
WORKSTATION.

If you are using other than default [LANMAN.INI] parameters, you will
have to specify the parameters on the command line to make it work.
This is because the LANMAN.INI file is actually parsed by NET.EXE, not
NETWKSTA.EXE.  (To avoid the 127-character command-line limitation imposed
by DOS, NET.EXE passes NETWKSTA.EXE a five-character command tail pointing
to a command block.)

Choose from the following list of parameters to specify:

    [/CHARCOUNT:number]           [/NUMSERVERS:number]
    [/CHARTIME:number]            [/NUMVIEWBUFFERS:number]
    [/CHARWAIT:number]            [/NUMVIEWEDSERVERS:number]
    [/COMPUTERNAME:name]          [/NUMWORKBUF:number]
    [/HIMEM:{Y | N | OPTIONAL}]   [/OPTIMIZATIONS:string]
    [/KEEPAPIS:{Y | N}]           [/PR1BUFFSIZE:number]
    [/LANGROUP:name]              [/PR2BUFFSIZE:number]
    [/LANROOT:directory]          [/PR3BUFFSIZE:number]
    [/LOGONSERVER:name]           [/SINGLERCVBUF:number]
    [/MAILSLOTS:{Y | N}]          [/SIZCHARBUF:number]
    [/NUMCHARBUF:number]          [/SIZWORKBUF:number]
    [/NUMMAILSLOTS:number]        [/WRKSERVICES:list]
    [/NUMRESOURCES:number]


The command format looks like this:

   {commands} NETWKSTA /COMPUTERNAME:xxx /LOGONSERVER:zzz /LANROOT:yyy

where {commands} is the command or commands needed by your specific
software to load NETWKSTA into high memory.

The minimum set of parameters is /COMPUTERNAME, /LOGONSERVER, and
/LANROOT, as shown above.  Set xxx and yyy to the values specified in
your LANMAN.INI file.  If your LANMAN.INI file has LOGONSERVER= blank, then
omit a value for zzz, but leave the /LOGONSERVER: present.

Note:  The syntax for command line parameters is /parameter:value,
       NOT parameter=value as in the LANMAN.INI file.

If you want the Redirector also to use XMS memory, specify /HIMEM:YES.  If
you do not want XMS memory, specify /HIMEM:NO.  The default is to use XMS
memory as long as the desired amount is greater than any /HMAMIN value
specified.  So, normally XMS memory will be used if it is present, unless
you specify otherwise.
