SOLUTION Overwrite the DOSINST.OVL on Installation and Utilities 1 disk with the new DOSINST.OVL file. (PERSONAL NetWare disks only and not Novell DOS 7 disks.) Note: This file has been updated in the production box for German, French, Italian and Spanish. SYMPTOM (03/16/94) DPMS (1.1) DPMS fixes minor problems from the original shipping version. Note: This vesion may cause a problem with PKUNZIP 2.04g causing a reboot with DPMS, NWCACHE and (DPMI=ON and/or MULTI=ON). The temporary workaround is to use this an older version of DPMS *or* turn off MULTI and DPMI. Engineering is aware of this issue and is working on a solution. (9/21/94) DPMS (1.2) DPMS is incompatible with 386MAX when 386MAX has been configured with the EMS=0 option. DPMS has been modified to inform the user to reconfigure 386MAX to use the NOFRAME option instead. (11/15/94) DPMS.EXE 1.3 This fixes a machine reboot problem seen when MULTI and DPMI are enabled, NWCACHE is loaded and PKUNZIP is executed. SOLUTION This DPMS.EXE file is a more current version of the DPMS.EXE file than the one that ships with PERSONAL NetWare or Novell DOS 7 (PNW or NWDOS7). SYMPTOM (04/04/94) NET.EXE If you try to map a drive after you captured a port, the following redirection error is returned: Note: This file has been updated in the production box for German, French, Italian and Spanish.

(5/24/94) SERVER.EXE If a COMx port is accessed, SERVER or VLM will hang or the sequence does not reboot the machine.
