Also included is a seperate stack for customers running in a Netware 3.11 environment for backward compatibility (doesn't include any of the new features).

Common TCPIP for all netware platforms >= 3.12 2. path MTU support 3. Improved TCP interface for customers using TCPIP on 3.X 4. TraceRoute module for Netware Server (IPTRACE.NLM) 5. Enhanced TCPCON to flush routes in your routing table 6. IP Multicast support 7. New APIs support (Nagle, delayed ACK) 8. support for multihoming 9. support for fast path algorithm 10. support for automatic IP address assignment over PPP 11. ShortHold (from client to Server and also from Server to Client) 12. DNS aware PING.NLM 13. Support for all 1's in subnet mask Problem Fixes:- ------------------ 1. stack hangs when TCP connections in the syn-recieved state 2. problems with sends of reverse ARP queries over Frame Relay links 3. loss of static route information when WAN links go down 4. fixes TCP RESETs when large file transfer during NW -> AS400 Note 1: Customers running an OSPF ASBR on a server running this version of TCPIP.NLM may encounter problems and should refrain from installing this patch ie. continue to use the version of TCPIP that they were using before.

Make a backup copy of each NLM file specified in the NW311 directory. 2. Manually copy the NLM files from the NW311 directory to the SYS:\SYSTEM directory. B:- For all other platforms 1. To install from floppy, you will need two 1.44MB floppies. 1.1. COPY DISK1\*.* A: /S/E/V 1.2. LABEL A:DISK1 1.3. COPY DISK2\*.* A: /S/E/V 1.4. LABEL A:DISK2 1.5 Load install at server console and enter A: for the installation path. 2. To install from local system volume: For example: 2.1. Create a TEMP Directory (sys:temp) and put DISK1 and DISK2 there. 2.2. Load install at the server console and enter SYS:\TEMP\DISK1 for the installation path. This additional installation method only runs on 4.1x servers. ================================================ 3. To install from a workstation to any 4.1x server 3.1 Create a TEMP on any drive (local or network) and put DISK1 and DISK2 there. For example: C:\TEMP\DISK1 or F:\TEMP\DISK1 \DISK2 \DISK2 3.2 If Rconsole and remote install are not already enabled, then enable Rconosle and remote install on the remote server via INETCFG.NLM and reinitialize system. 3.3 From your client, Rconsole to the remote server. For example: F:\public\Rconsole Provide ADMIN password and load INSTALL at the server console. 3.4 Make sure you Press instead of or when asked for source path and then enter C:\TEMP\DISK1\RINSTALL or F:\TEMP\DISK1\RINSTALL. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Any trademarks referenced in this document are the property of their respective owners.
