- read the Licence agreement in the Information panel. All trademarks, icons and

-
- This is a revised version of the CAPer package which replaces the V6 release,
- V7 was only a beta test version, if you run any CAPer release below V8 please
- upgrade as this release now fixes most bugs and shortcomings. (Still there is
- no file locking - not much I can do about it, as it seems to be broken in NS)
-
- If you upgrade from a V6 release, please keep in mind that your setup files
- will be overwritten too. Before base installing you can save your setup:
-
- - Exported fileystems
- /usr/local/lib/cap/afpvols
-
- - Exported printers
- /usr/local/cap/start-print-servers
- /usr/local/lib/cap/lwsrv_*.conf
-
- - Imported printers (local Appletalk printers)
- /usr/local/cap/*.sh
-
- If you upgrade from a V4 or lesser release you have to remade your setup
- using the GUI tools. Do not try to use your old scripts in this case!
-

- versions, information and some hints on setting up CAPer.
