THIS FILE SHOWS A HISTORY OF CHANGES TO NOVELL FILES - REGARDING NETWARE - ON
NETWIRE BEGINNING JANUARY 1991. CHANGES ARE MADE IN THE FORM OF UPDATES AND
UPLOADS. UPDATES ARE CHANGES TO NOVELL FILES ALREADY ON NETWIRE; IN THESE
CASES, THE OLD VERSION OF THE FILE IS REPLACED BY A TEXT FILE STATING THAT A
NEWER FILE CAN BE FOUND IN LIBRARY 16 (Novell, New Uploads). UPLOADS ARE
NEWLY UPLOADED FILES WHICH ARE PLACED IN LIBRARY 16.
==========================================================================
September 4, 1991
UPLOAD
WORMFX.ZIP - This patch is intended for 20-, 100-, and 250-user versions of
NetWare v3.11. Currently, if a removable device is
initially mounted read/write, and then the cartridge is
removed and a new one is placed in that has the write disable
tab set, the OS does not recognize that the device is not
write only. This patch fixes this problem.
UPLOADED TO .LIB 16
REMDEV.ZIP - This patch is intended for any number-of-user version of
NetWare 386 v3.11a. This patch fixes a problem when
attempting to format removable devices. If INSTALL.NLM is
loaded and FORMAT is run, the 3.11 Operating System causes an
abend with the message "ABEND: Kernel detected a process switch during
interrupt time." This patch fixes this problem.

UPLOAD
NDSPX.ZIP - This file contains
CHGSPX.EXE 28,508 8-12-91 9:55a
SPXCOUNT.EXE 12,209 8-12-91 9:55a
CHGSPX.EXE This is a menu driven utility and contains instructions
on how the program works. This program will configure
the .obj files for ADV NetWare V2.15C and V2.2 so that
the DOS process on a non dedicated file server versions
2.15C and 2.2(5,10,50,100) will support more than 15 SPX
CONNECTIONS. Since it is menu driven, executing chgspx.exe
will not effect the system until the user specifies the
modifications to be made. This patch may be used on the
5, 10, 50, and 100 user versions of NetWare 286 V2.2.
SPXCOUNT.EXE: This is a utility that determines the number of SPX
connections that a workstation is configured for.

SYSCON.ZIP - SYSCON v.3.66 is intended for NetWare 386 v3.x and NetWare 286
v2.x. This new SYSCON fixes a problem of data and directories
being deleted. This occurs when accessing "Trustee Directory
Assignments" under "User Information" in the SYSCON utility.
If an attempt is made to add rights to a user for a specific
directory, and that directory pathname is entered incorrectly
with a forward slash following the colon after the volume name
(i.e. SERVER/SYS:/PUBLIC/DOS), all data in that directory is
lost. UPLOADED TO .LIB 16

UPLOAD
22ND2F.ZIP - This patch, NDINT2F is intended for NetWare v2.2 for the 5,
10, 50, and 100 user versions. This patch fixes a problem
with the int 2F handler on the non-dedicated DOS process of
a file server. For certain values of AH, int 2F will cause
the server to ABEND with the message: "Invalid semaphore
state on other process release." This interrupt 2F conflict
occurs between the 286 OS (non-dedicated) and certain other
applications that use 2F. The problem was discovered when
using a Cobol compiler and Cobol applications on a
non-dedicated server; other applications that require int 2F
may also require this patch.

console as a NetWare Loadable Module. This patch fixes a
problem in NetWare 386 V3.10a. The API function call
ScanBinderyObject fails to properly recognize "?" as a wild
card. The failure was related to the size of the Bindery
name being searched for and the number of "?" wild card
characters (if greater than 12) entered in the search string.
Although those most likely to see this problem are application
developers using the ScanBinderyObject call, users of
applications developed with this call may see the error
message: Object could not be found.
UPDATES

SEC286.ZIP and
SEC386.ZIP - A very rare security shortcoming has been identified by
Novell. It has been fixed with these patches. For most
Novell customers who have intruder detection set on, this
security weakness will not pose a problem. Novell recommends
that all customers turn intruder detection on. If the
customer has greater concerns for security, this corrective
patch should be applied.
SEC286.ZIP should only be applied to released copies of
NetWare 286 v2.15 rev C; any previous or subsequent versions
of 286-based NetWare do not have this problem and should not
have this program fix applied to them.

loaded while the server is running, but they cannot be
unloaded. Static patches are DOS executable programs that make
changes to the SERVER.EXE file.

revision E or higher of the DCB firmware. DCBs with firmware
revision D or earlier will not work with NetWare 386 v3.10.
TB281.TXT - Technical Bulletin 281. Several patches and enhancements have
been released for NetWare 286 v2.15 rev. C. These patches and
