- parameter file. Parameter files containing temporary fixes (ie. *.FIX) are
- supplied for both 3.5" and 5.25" media.
-
-
- To implement ZAPOBJ:
-
- 1) Copy the files included with this patch to a working directory.
-
- 2) For a 3.5" media system, do the following:
-
- a) Copy SFT.OBJ to the working directory from the SFTOBJ subdirectory
- of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory.
-
- b) Copy TTS.OBJ to the working directory from the TTSOBJ subdirectory
- of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory.
-
- CAUTION: It is strongly recommended that you make backup copies of
- all .OBJ files to be patched in this process.
-
- c) Execute the following commands:
-
- ZAPOBJ SFT.OBJ NEWSFT.OBJ SFT.FIX
- ZAPOBJ TTS.OBJ NEWTTS.OBJ TTS.FIX
-
- If ZAPOBJ is successful, a message will be issued to that effect.
-
- d) Copy NEWSFT.OBJ and NEWTTS.OBJ to the corresponding SFTOBJ and TTSOBJ
- subdirectories under INSTALL. Rename them to SFT.OBJ and TTS.OBJ
- respectively.
-
- OR For a 5.25" media system, do the following:
-
- a) Copy SFT_1.OBJ to the working directory from the SFTOBJ subdirectory
- of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory.
-
- b) Copy TTS_1.OBJ to the working directory from the TTSOBJ subdirectory
- of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory.
-
- c) Copy SFT_2.OBJ and TTS_2.OBJ to the working directory from the OSOBJ
- subdirectory of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory.
-
- CAUTION: It is strongly recommended that you make backup copies of
- all .OBJ files to be patched in this process.
-
- d) Execute the following commands:
-
- ZAPOBJ SFT_1.OBJ NEWSFT_1.OBJ SFT_1.FIX
- ZAPOBJ TTS_1.OBJ NEWTTS_1.OBJ TTS_1.FIX
- ZAPOBJ SFT_2.OBJ NEWSFT_2.OBJ SFT_2.FIX
- ZAPOBJ TTS_2.OBJ NEWTTS_2.OBJ TTS_2.FIX
-
- If ZAPOBJ is successful, a message will be issued to that effect.
-
- e) Copy NEWSFT_1.OBJ and NEWTTS_1.OBJ to the corresponding SFTOBJ and
- TTSOBJ subdirectories under INSTALL. Rename them to SFT_1.OBJ and
- TTS_1.OBJ respectively.
-
- f) Copy NEWSFT_2.OBJ and NEWTTS_2.OBJ to the OSOBJ subdirectory under
- INSTALL. Rename them to SFT_2.OBJ and TTS_2.OBJ respectively.
-
- 3) Execute NETGEN and ensure that the "Link/Configure NetWare Operating
- System" option is selected and that NET$OS.EXE is copied to your network
- drive during "NetWare Installation".
-
- 4) Boot the server. The system will indicate that the fix has been applied
- by displaying the message "Netware Release for PTF00001".
-
