I am trying to get tcpip to work with a cabletron card and I am having
some difficulty.  I get the following messages on bootup as the ndis
driver is loaded:

Failure: Protocol.ini does not have an DRIVERNAME =.
Failure: Protocol Manager did not accept driver.
Failure: NDIS enviroment invalid, Driver not loaded.


This is the first time I have tried to do this so I may be doing something
stupid.  Any answers?

Here is my protocol.ini:
; ---------------------  Protocol Manager Definition  -----------------------

[PROTOCOL_MANAGER]
  DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$


[TCPIP_XIF]
  DriverName = TCPIP$
  Bindings = CSI8023
