NDISGEN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						NDISGEN(8)

NAME

     ndisgen -- generate a FreeBSD driver module from a Windows(R) NDIS driver distribution

SYNOPSIS

     ndisgen [/path/to/INF /path/to/SYS]

DESCRIPTION

     The ndisgen script uses the ndiscvt(8) utility and other tools to generate a FreeBSD loadable driver module and a static ELF object module
     from a Windows(R) NDIS driver, for use with the ndis(4) compatibility module.

     The ndisgen script is interactive and contains its own help section.  Unless the paths to both files are supplied on the command line, the
     script will prompt the user for the .INF and .SYS files needed to generate the FreeBSD driver module.  The script will also prompt for any
     firmware or other external files needed.

SEE ALSO

     ld(1), objcopy(1), ndis(4), kldload(8), ndiscvt(8)

HISTORY

     The ndisgen utility first appeared in FreeBSD 6.0.

AUTHORS

     The ndisgen utility was written by Bill Paul <wpaul@windriver.com>.
