+=========>  !! important NOTE !!
+You can configure mars_nwe in two ways.
+1. You want mars_nwe to handle routing/sap and configuring
+   ipx-interfaces. This is the default mode.
+   You do not need any other ipx-tool or routers/daemons.
+   In this modus the correct coexisting working
+   of mars_nwe, dosemu, ncpfs or Caldera's nwclient was tested.
+-> you must use kernel < 1.3.60 or use kernel >= 1.3.60 and compile
+   your kernel with IPX-option CONFIG_IPX_INTERN=N
+   In mars_nwe/config.h there must exist the following line:
+   #define INTERNAL_RIP_SAP  1
+
+2. You want to run mars_nwe only as a fileserver and use
+   special tools to configure ipx and rip/sap routers.
+-> In this mode you must use tools like ipx-configure and
+   ripd to configure ipx-interfaces, routes and handle rip/sap.
+   In mars_nwe/config.h there must exist the following line:
+   #define INTERNAL_RIP_SAP  0
+
+=========>   create programs
+1. call make.
+2. perhaps you must modify mk.li and config.h
+3. call make
+
+=========>   configure
+modify nw.ini !
+IMPORTANT !!
+Please read examples/nw.ini if you use a new version
+of mars_nwe and make the needed changes to your
+'ini' or 'conf' file.
+=========>   install
+"make install"
+"make install_ini" to overwrite your old _installed_ ini.
+
+=========>   start programs
+call nwserv ( as root !! )
+tested with Linux Version 1.2.13 and 1.3.32
+the linux-kernel must be configured with IPX=Y.
+ipx-interface and ipx-routes are setup by the program if the
+entry 4 (devices) in the nw.ini file is filled.
+
+=========>   stop programs (server down)
+If nwserv isn't daemonized, then the server can be stopped
+with ^C, otherwise the server must be shut down with a
+kill of nwserv or with the right dos client programm
+(fconsole server down) as supervisor. Entry 210 in the
+nw.ini file gives the time in seconds, before the server
+really shuts down.
+
+good luck  :-)
