ISSUE: 

This readme contains a listing of the main problems fixed in the NetWare Client
32 for Windows 95 environment.  The problems are listed under the module the
problem was fixed by:

 CLIENT32.NLM
 1-  During execution of Beyond Mail (BMailw.exe) the following error message
is displayed:  Error: "You have insufficient rights to read the public
rule/form database"
 2-  Application called "ProSystem for Windows" that uses "Ramia Data Base" 
returns error message:  Error:"CTX_BXERROR-906 unable to get access to taf
file.  Load share and retry"
 3-  Dos TSR using 78K memory when it should only use  4K of memory.
 4-  Lock - Unlock and reacquirng a lock fails with error code 162.
 5-  Microsoft Access.  Error: Couldn't open file <path> SYSTEM.MDA..
 6-  Timeslip application causes machine hang.
 7-  Peachtree application causes machine hang
 8-  During execution of "Lacerte Income Tax Program" the following error
message is displayed Error: "Program has performed an illegal operation"
 9-  Garbage is printed when printing from a dos application when using "Set
Specific Capture Flags" and reply buffer length is greater than 45.
 10-  Menu application called ODBS would always return to the initial menu
screen instead of the menu that it was called from.
 11-  Timeout parameter not working with DOS Capture.
 12-  Environment variables not being passed to DOS during the login process.

 NOVPP32.DLL
 1-  This file fixes a printer offline error message that appears when trying
to access a network printer from within the Printer Wizard when a tree and a
server on the network have the same name.  In the properties for the defined
printer, the printer name should start with a leading "." (default syntax if
the printer is selected by using the browsing process).  If the printer name is
manually typed in, make sure that the leading "." exists, i.e.
\\<servername>\<.printer.ou.o>.  (Fixed 3/5/96)
 2-  NOVPP32.DLL changed the way that the DLL was loaded.  Previous to this
version of NOVPP32.DLL, if the network was not yet available when Windows 95
loaded NOVPP32, the DLL just didn't load.  Now NOVPP32 will load regardless of
whether the network has been completely initialized.  (Fixed 3/25/96)
 3-  This version will not abort the job if the printer handle is closed by
Windows 95 before the job is closed.

 AUTOMATIC CLIENT UPDATE SETUP
 1-  The changes made to SETUP.EXE will remove the screens at the beginning of
the process and the reboot message that require manual intervention.  The
changes are controlled with the following parameters in the included
NWSETUP.INI file.  (Fixed 3/11/96)
 ; ACU Option
      ; The following section contains settings that will minimize user
intervention
      ; during the automated upgrade of clients.
   ; DisplayFirstScreen
      ; Setting this to 1 will prompt the user whether they wish to continue or
cancel
      ; the automated upgrade.
   ; DisplayLastScreen
      ; Setting this to 1 will prompt the user whether they wish to reboot for
the
      ; changes to take effect or not.
   [AcuOptions]
   DisplayFirstScreen=0
   DisplayLastScreen=0
