- Description of CREATFIX patch utility:
-
-
- CREATFIX.EXE is a patch utility that modifies the SERVER.EXE file of
- NetWare 386 v3.0. Some applications attempt to create a file by using the
- DOS INT 21 call CREATE NEW FILE (function 5B). This call will only succeed
- in creating the specified file if it does not already exist. If the file does
- exist, function 5B returns an error code indicating the existence of the file.
- NetWare 386 erroneously returns an ACCESS DENIED error if function 5B
- is called to create a file which already exists. This may confuse certain
- applications, leading to unpredictable results.
- CREATFIX corrects this problem and causes the correct error code to
- be returned to the application. Future versions of NetWare 386 will already
- have this fix implemented. This patch will only work for NetWare 386 v3.0.

- Instructions for use:
-
-
- Copy CREATFIX.EXE into the same directory as SERVER.EXE and type
- CREATFIX. The program will patch the file and notify the user when finished.
