Novell Confidential
Manual 99a38 July 17, 2001
located in TID 2952441. This update addresses an issue in which a file opened
once by different threads (one open in each thread) in an application and then
closed leaves an instance of the file open, even after exiting the application.
This problem could cause the server to run out of memory or hang.
IP with IPX Compatibility Dependency
When using the IP with IPX
TM
Compatibility client configuration, make sure
that the TCP/IP stack has been configured with a TCP/IP gateway. This can
be configured through DHCP or defined locally. The IPX Compatibility
driver and IP routing will not work properly without a TCP/IP gateway
configured. Under Windows 95/98, the gateway can be configured by opening
the TCP/IP Properties page from the Network Properties page. If your network
is configured to use DHCP, you do not need to configure the gateway locally.
IP with IPX Compatibility Needs Migration Agent
If you are using the IP with IPX Compatibility configuration on the client and
are trying to connect to servers running IPX only, make sure that you have
configured a Migration Agent (MA) on the network.
For more information on setting up a Migration Agent on the network, see the
NetWare
®
5 documentation (www.novell.com/documentation). To
troubleshoot a Novell Client’s MA visibility or configuration, enter
CMDINFO at the DOS prompt. This command should list all configured or
discovered MAs, depending on the IPX compatibility configuration.
ZENWorks for Desktops 2 Remote Management Does Not Work after Upgrading to Novell
Client for Windows 95/98 Version 3.31
If you upgraded Novell Client software and chose to update Remote
Management during installation, Remote Management will not function if you
do not have ZENworks
TM
for Desktops 3. If you have inadvertently upgraded
Remote Management and do not have ZENworks 3 for Desktops, do the
following:
1 Uninstall Novell Client for Windows 95/98 version 3.31.
2 Install a previous version (with the Remote Management option selected)
of Novell Client for Windows 95/98.
This replaces the Remote Management functionality.
3 Install Novell Client for Windows 95/98 version 3.31 without selecting
Remote Management.
