- Novell's Netware Lite 1.0 has a minor bug which will prevent the server
- portion of the program from operating in an OS/2 VDM. Under certain
- conditions it will also crash DOS. This patch will correct the defect
- in the file SERVER.EXE. This is not an official fix, and carries no
- guarantees. Novell has been sent this patch file and appropriately
- informed of this condition. Users should contact Novell to obtain
- official fixes to the Netware Lite program product.
-
- The problem is that SERVER.EXE assumes the JFN (Job File Number) for
- handles 0 and 1 (standard in and out) to always be a value of 1. This
- is not always the true, since handles and the system file table are
- independent. The correct solution is to copy the JFN from the PSP of
- SERVER.EXE for handles 0 and 1 to the new JFT (Job File Table).
-
- To install this fix enter the following from either an OS/2 or VDM
- command line: PATCH NWLITE.PAT /A
