This file slightly changes three "READ.MEs" included with NetWare for SAA 1.3. The three deal with changes the installer must make to insure compatability between NetWare for SAA V1.3 and: - NACS V3.0 - NetWare HostPrint - NetWare SNA Links *********************************************************************** NACS 3.0 and NetWare for SAA 1.3 Sharing COMMEXEC NACS 3.0x and NetWare for SAA both ship with, and use COMMEXEC. NetWare for SAA 1.3 ships with COMMEXEC version 1.3 which is significantly different from the version which ships with NACS. - COMMEXEC 1.3 is neither a better nor worse platform for NACS 3. It is simply a version modified for compatibility with NetWare for SAA 1.3. - If NACS3 and SAA 1.3 will be sharing a server they will be sharing COMMEXEC 1.3 and one of the two following sets of instructions must be followed. Both require the use of the "NACS Update Disk" which ships with NetWare for SAA V1.3. I. If NACS 3.0 was installed prior to receipt of NetWare for SAA 1.3 (and -------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMEXEC 1.3). -------------- After the COMMEXEC 1.3 update has been completed execute the following steps: 1. From the NetWare console, load the NetWare installation utility: :LOAD INSTALL 2. Select "Product Options" 3. Press the "INSERT" key and enter the full path of the location of the "NACS and SNA Links Compatibility Modules", or insert that disk into drive A: 4. Select the "Install on this Server" option II. If NetWare for SAA 1.3 (and COMMEXEC 1.3) were installed prior to NACS --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.0. ---- Assume - NACS 3.0 DISK1 is in drive A:, and - "NACS and SNA Links Compatibility Modules" disk is in drive B: 1. Overwrite DISK1 of NACS 3.0 with the contents of the "NACS and SNA Links Compatibility Modules" disk: XCOPY B:*.* A: /S 2. Delete the PRODUCT.DEF file DEL A:PRODUCT.DEF 3. Rename the PRODUCT.IEF file to PRODUCT.DEF RENAME A:PRODUCT.IEF PRODUCT.DEF 4. From the NetWare console, load the NetWare installation utility: :LOAD INSTALL 5. Select "Product Options" 6. Press the "INSERT" key and enter the full path of the location of the (newly updated) NACS 3.0 files, or insert the (newly updated) NACS 3.0 disk into drive A: 7. Select the "Install on this Server" option. ************************************************************************* NETWARE HOSTPRINT V1.0 UPDATE FOR NETWARE FOR SAA V1.3 VERY important information about installing and running NetWare HostPrint under NetWare for SAA 1.3. 1. If you installed HostPrint under NetWare for SAA 1.1 or 1.2, you must apply the update disk, following the directions below, before HostPrint can be used under NetWare for SAA 1.3. 2. If you are doing a new installation of HostPrint under NetWare for SAA 1.3, you must follow the procedures described in this document -- the installation procedure that comes with HostPrint WILL NOT WORK under NetWare for SAA 1.3. UPDATING HOSTPRINT FOR NETWARE FOR SAA V1.3 The following instructions assume that: - HostPrint is already installed under NetWare for SAA 1.1 or 1.2 - NetWare for SAA 1.3 has been successfully installed. 1. The server must be active but NetWare for SAA (COMMEXEC.NLM) must not be running. 2. Insert the HostPrint update disk into a drive on the server. 3. At the NetWare console prompt (":"), enter: LOAD A:HPUPDATE (If you placed the HostPrint installation diskette in a drive other than the "A" drive, change the "A:" in the above command to identify the appropriate drive.) 4. You will see a series of messages about files being copied, followed by a message that PINSTALL.NLM is being loaded. 5. The PINSTALL utility will present a screen which prompts you to confirm the continuation of the update/installation process, and which informs you about the progress of that installation. 6. When the installation is complete, press Escape to exit from PINSTALL. INSTALLING NETWARE HOSTPRINT UNDER NETWARE FOR SAA V1.3 The following instructions assume that: - NetWare for SAA 1.3 is successfully installed on a server on which HostPrint has not previously been installed 1. On a DOS workstation, login or attach to the target server as "SUPERVISOR" and map a drive (for example, "N:") to the SYS:\SYSTEM directory on the target server. 2. Insert the HostPrint installation disk into a drive on the workstation. 3. Issue the following DOS commands: COPY A:HOSTPRT.* N: COPY A:PRCONFIG.* N: COPY A:*.XLT N: (Change "A:" and "N:" in the above commands to identify the appropriate drives, if necessary.) 4. Use the HostPrint update disk and follow the procedures described above in the section "Updating HostPrint for NetWare for SAA 1.3". RUNNING HOSTPRINT UNDER NETWARE FOR SAA V1.3 For the most part, HostPrint under NetWare for SAA 1.3 works exactly as described in the HostPrint documentation. However, there are minor differences: A. There is no CS> prompt. Instead, LOAD and UNLOAD commands are issued from the NetWare server : prompt. B. To LOAD the command is now "LOAD HOSTPRT" (not "CSLOAD HOSTPRT"). C. To UNLOAD the command is now "UNLOAD HOSTPRT" (not "CSUNLOAD HOSTPRT"). D. The "CSDOWN" command no longer exists. ********************************************************************** NetWare SNA Links Product UpGrade/Installation March 18, 1993 SNA Links Already Installed with NetWare for SAA 1.2 ------------------------------------------------------ If NetWare SNA Links 1.0 is already installed in a NetWare for SAA 1.2 environment, it will be automatically changed to execute in a NetWare for SAA 1.3 environment when NetWare for SAA 1.3 is installed, with the following minor exceptions. 1. Refer to Chapter 7 of the NetWare for SAA 1.3 Administration Guide for instructions on providing a value for the new field called "Logical Adapter Name". 2. Add the "NAME=" field to the "LOAD adapter" command in AUTOEXEC.NCF. 3. After the installation the file SYS:\CSL\RIPENH.NLM may be deleted. A newer version is on the SYS:\SYSTEM directory and is automatically used when referenced in AUTOEXEC.NCF. First Time Installation of SNA Links ------------------------------------ If you are installing NetWare SNA Links with NetWare for SAA 1.3, you must have the product disks for NetWare for SNA Links, the "NetWare SAA 1.3 / NetWare Operating System and Misc Support Files" diskette, and the NetWare SNA Links Administration Guide. Then: 1. If NetWare for SAA is currently running, stop it by following the instructions in the NetWare SNA Links Administration Guide, pages 4-2 and 4-3. 2. From a DOS client, create a directory on your server called SYS:SYSTEM\SNALINKS. 3. Copy all files from the NetWare SNA Links product disk #1 to SYS:SYSTEM\SNALINKS. Do not copy the CSL directory files, this part of the procedure is covered in the NetWare SNA Links Administration Guide (see step 10 below). 4. Copy PINSTALL.NLM and CSINSTAL.HLP from SYS:SYSTEM\CSINSTAL to SYS:SYSTEM\SNALINKS. 5. With SYS:SYSTEM as your default directory, enter: LOAD INSTALL 6. Move the cursor down to Product Options, and press enter. 7. When the "Currently Installed Products" screen appears, press the INSERT key, backup over the "A:" path and enter the string: SYS:SYSTEM\SNALINKS 8. When the "Install displayed Product" window appears, select the "Install on this server" option (the other options are not supported for NetWare SNA Links). 9. When the message ".........has been completed." appears, press escape and exit the INSTALL program. Note: Item 10 replaces page 4-12 in the NetWare for SNA Links Administration Guide. 10. From a workstation, using the NetWare SNA Links product disk #1, copy the files: IRWASM.NLM ICM_SPX.NLM to the file server directory SYS:\CSL if they are not already there. If they are, only copy them if they have later dates. 11. Follow the instructions in the NetWare SNA Links Administration Guide pages 4-9 through 4-11 to install SNA Links Performance Files (required). 12. NetWare SNA Links v1.0 is now installed and ready for configuration. 13. Refer to Chapter 5 in the NetWare SNA Links Administration Guide for details on configuration. 14. Refer to the NetWare for SAA v1.3 Administration Guide, Chapter 7 for instructions on configuring NetWare SAA service profiles, especially the new field called "Logical Adapter Name". Be sure to add the "NAME=" field to the "LOAD adapter" command in AUTOEXEC.NCF. NOTE ---- 1. When the RIPENH.NLM is loaded (after LSLENH.NLM), the message shown below is displayed. Please ignore it, RIPENH is executing properly. "RIPENH: Warning: The LSL has already been patched - probably by LSLENH.NLM. RIPENH.NLM will still load." 2. NetWare SNA Links v1.0 currently supports only Token Ring and SDLC connections.
