Supported Network Adapters Not Available in Remoteboot Manager

 Last reviewed: September 7, 1995
Article ID: Q136036
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5 and 3.51

SYMPTOMS

When you set up a profile in Remoteboot Manager (RPLMGR.EXE), some supported network adapters are not available. The supported network adapters for Remoteboot are listed on page 112 of the "Windows NT Server 3.5 (and 3.51) Installation Guides."

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, use the default profile in Remoteboot Manager if you are using any one of the supported network adapters listed below. The Remoteboot Service for Windows NT identifies the network adapter by its vendor ID and passes the correct network adapter driver to the computer.

The following supported network adapters are not available for selection in Remoteboot Manager: 

   3Com TokenLink
   3Com TokenLink III
   3Com 3Station
   Madge Smart Ringnodes
   IBM Token Ring
   Novell NE1000
NOTE: The Madge Smart Ringnodes network adapter is not listed in page 112 of the Windows NT Server Installation Guides, but is one of the supported network adapters for the Remoteboot service.
