2. WHAT'S FIXED

For each fix, the external bug number is shown.
Any questions should reference this bug number.
This patch fixes the following bugs:

2.1  1198027   PC-NFSpro cannot initialize the Cabletron DNI Ethernet series 
	       packet drivers.

2.2  1190253   PC-NFSpro PPP fails to maintain a connection to a shiva
	       Lan Rover.

2.3  1201936  WFW311 32 Bit files access is disabled after the PC-NFSpro
	      network initializes.

2.4  1191168 NFSWCOMM.DRV strips off the high order bit preventing a 3rd party 
	     terminal emulator from sending an 8 bit character.
   
2.5  1194211  PC-NFSpro does not support driver chaining. Therefore, using 
	      MS-Windows you cannot simultaneously support PC-NFSpro, Netware 
	      and a Windows for Workgroups network. 
	      
2.6  1207408 Dialing a remote machine from Toshiba 4850 laptop running 
	     MS-Windows 3.11 with a Megahertz 28.8 PCMIA modem occasionally 
             fails.

2.7  1206393  Internal modem in IBM Thinkpad 755cse fails in PC-NFSpro

2.8  1206334 & 1209641 Comm port may hang whenever PPP fails to connect to a 
		       remote host or is unable to execute a script. Modem 
		       commands do not echo back to the PPP dialer display window 
		      
	      
2.9 1209350   Some Socket operations(e.g.: network printing, login) 
	      stop working after a while.

2.10 1183562  Correctly handle token ring source routing.
	      Corrects a problem where RIF bit was incorrectly set.
	      If your network requires source routing to be disabled
	      you can manually edit system.ini as follows:

		 [NFSW]
		 Omit8022RIF=1

2.11 1186588  Telnetw.exe correctly handles "set host" command within a 
	      .ecf file.

2.12 1193065  FTP works correctly when connected to Ultrix hosts. Some 
	      Ultrix systems did not respond as expected to PRO's FTP USER 
	      command. No FTP commands could be issued. This patch correctly 
	      handles responses from DEC Ultrix FTP servers.

2.13 1194688  Prevents system crash if locking services are enabled and the
	      current user belongs to more than 10 groups. NFS file locking is 
	      compatible with MS Excel ver. 5.x.

2.14 1182423  NFS file locking is compatible with MS Word and MS Powerpoint.

2.15  pcw961   PC-NFSpro NFS mounts using locking services  are much faster. 
	       Version 1.1 NFS mounts could take up to 1 minute when connecting 
	       to some NFS hosts using locking services.   
    
2.16  pcw969, pw959  FTP handles MVS and VMS file names correctly.

2.17  pcw877  Ping correctly displays routing information.

2.18  1188036 NFS time stamps are no longer off by one hour on files created
	      during a non DST period.

2.19  1188947  PC-NFSpro no longer requires a password to perform a pcnfsd 
	       login.

2.20  1184248  Fixes a problem of randomly exiting Windows for Workgroups when
	       NetBIOS is configured to run a startup.

2.21  1198276  Increases the timeout for network initialization when interfaces
	       are being configured by DHCP. Prior to the patch it was possible 
	       for initialization to timeout before DHCP configuration was complete.
	       Resulting in functional TCP/IP stack, but, no NFS.

2.22  1182622  Can now specify multiple DNS search domains. The search path is 
	       specified by adding the following section to PCNFSWIN.INI:

		 [TCP/IP]
		 DNSSearch=DOMAIN1 DOMAIN2 DOMAIN3...DOMAIN6

2.23  pcn916  Email now correctly detaches text attachments.


3. HOW TO INSTALL THIS PATCH

This patch may be installed directly from the distribution
diskette or it may be copied to a network directory and installed
from the network.

	  e.g.: Network Upgrade 

	      * NOTE: Share.exe should be disabled when executing 
		      upgrade.bat while PC-NFSpro is running.

	  1. Mount the file system where the patch files are to be installed.
	     e.g.: host:\tmp on drive letter d:
	  2. Insert the patch diskette into the diskette drive (A:)
	  3. copy a:*.* d:\tmp  
	  4. Within a DOS window change the directory to d:\tmp and execute the 
	     batch file.
	     e.g.: UPGRADE C:\PCNFSPRO C:\WINDOWS

	     where:
	     C:\PCNFSPRO is the location where PC-NFSpro 1.1.1.0 is installed.
	     C:\WINDOWS is the location where Microsoft Windows is installed.


CONFIGURATION NOTES:


 1. BUG ID 1191168(Enabling 8 bit mode for 3rd party emulators): 
       In order to enable 8 bit mode an additional parameter must be added to 
   the PCNFSWIN.INI file located in the Windows directory. The new
   parameter name is:   

			DataLenComX=8

   where X is the Com port number which was selected in the PC-NFSpro
   advanced configuration screen.

   Different Com Ports can be set to different lengths at the
   same time (i.e. Com Port 1 set to 7 bits, while Com Port 2 can
   be set to 8 bits).

   The default mode of communications for the driver is 7 bit. 
   This means if the "DataLenComX" line is not found or does 
   explicitly indicate 8 bit data length the default will be used.
 

 2. Netware Coexistence(Driver Chaining)


a) Netware and PC-NFSpro  :

Netware should be installed as the only Network using Microsoft
Windows network setup and should be configured to use an ODI
driver. 

PC-NFSpro 1.1.0.0. or 1.1.1.0 should be installed, but, 
Windows should not be configured to use the PC-NFSpro network.
If Windows had previously been configured to run PC-NFSpro then
it may be necessary to remove the following entries from system.ini :

 nfswnet.drv, NFSW.386, NFSWNFS.386, NFSWNETB.386, NFSW_PPP.386

Install the patch and run PC-NFSpro configuration program (nfswconf.exe),
save and answer yes when config prompts for coexistence with Novell Netware.
Exit the configuration program.

The PC-NFSpro configuration program determines if MS Windows
or MS Windows for Workgroups has been setup to use Novell Netware.
If Windows has been configured to use Netware and ODI, PC-NFSpro configuration 
program will configure PC-NFSpro to use the same ODI driver.
It will add the odipkt entry into \pcnfspro\etc\nfswauto.bat and
modify MS Windows system.ini to chain the PC-NFSpro Windows network
driver to the Novell Windows network driver.
  

b) MS-Windows Network, Netware and PC-NFSpro (Windows for Workgroups only):

Microsoft Windows network should be configured using the 
Microsoft Windows network setup program. Novell Netware should  
be configured as the "additional network". Both the Windows network and
Netware should be configured to use the ODI driver type.

PC-NFSpro 1.1.0.0. or 1.1.1.0 should be installed, but, 
Windows should not be configured to use the PC-NFSpro network.
If Windows had previously been configured to run PC-NFSpro then
it may be necessary to remove the following entries from system.ini :

 nfswnet.drv, NFSW.386, NFSWNFS.386, NFSWNETB.386, NFSW_PPP.386

Also, any references to PC-NFSpro should be removed from \windows\protocol.ini.

eg:  transport=pcnfspro,PCNFSPRO
     lanax=tcm$xxxx,1,pcnfspro

     [PCNFSPRO]
     BINDINGS=xxxx
     LANABASE=x


Install the patch and run the PC-NFSpro configuration program.
The PC-NFSpro configuration program determines if MS Windows
for Workgroups and Novell Netware have been installed. If both
a Microsoft network and Netware are installed the PC-NFSpro configuration 
program will instruct the user to exit the configuration program. and to 
add  the PC-NFSpro protocol using the MS-Windows network setup program.
Start Microsoft Network setup and select DRIVERS, then select ADD PROTOCOL.
Choose "ADD UNLISTED OR UPDATED PROTOCOL" and insert the patch diskette 
containing the oemsetup.inf file when Windows network setup prompts for 
the path to the vendor supplied files. Select "SunSoft PC-NFSpro" protocol 
and exit Windows setup. DO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER. Exit setup and 
rerun the PC-NFSpro configuration program.
Select SAVE and respond YES when prompted for coexistence with 
Novell Netware. Exit Windows and reboot the PC.

PC-NFSpro configuration program will configure PC-NFSpro to use the same 
network  interface which the Microsoft Network is using. It will add the 
following entry to \pcnfspro\etc\nfswauto.bat :

     REM  Using Windows for WorkGroups drivers

The configuration program will modify Windows system.ini to chain the 
PC-NFSpro Windows network driver to the Novell and Windows Network drivers.
MS Windows setup.exe will add the PC-NFSpro protocol to 
\windows\protocol.ini.


c) Unconfigure Network Coexistance

Coexistance with Netware can be disabled choosing the "Unconfigure Network 
Coexistance" option in the "Tools" pull down menu within the PC-NFSpro 
Configuration program. If Pro is currently configured for a Windows network 
and Netware  (see section b: above) the "PC-NFS Protocol" must be manually 
removed by running  Windows setup. Choose "Drivers" select the "PC-NFS Protocol" 
and click on "Remove." Windows setup will remove the PC-NFSpro entries within 
protocol.ini.

 3. Bug ID # 1207408(Dialing a remote machine from Toshiba 4850 laptop)
	Do not select ADD PROXY ARP ENTRY in the advanced PPP Setup. Doing so
	may lock up your pc.
