The following problems have been observed with the LANtastic(R)
version 5.0 installation program.
1) LANtastic/AI Single Node Windows Installation - This will NOT
correctly serialize the Server or Redirector. Problem report
#T03526
WORKAROUNDS - Perform a DOS install copy Redir.exe and Server.exe to
a temporary directory and then perform the Windows install.
or
Create a separate subdirectory c:\lantasti\sysfiles, copy Redir.exe
and Server.exe to this directory. Now run the install program. When
finished server and redir should be correctly serialized.
2) The remote print program Rpd.exe will not be installed when
using the 2mbps installation program. It also will not be
installed if you use the INSTALL UNPACK command.
WORKAROUND - Edit the file Install.fls, and add the line
2 WS RPD.EXE
to the bottom of the file above the *.
Now run install or INSTALL UNPACK RPD.EXE C:\LANTASTI
3) We have seen several instances where a CDROM will no longer work
after running the install program.
WORKAROUND - Delete and recreate the cdrom resource.
4) We have had several reports that the install will create a large
seek cache. If after installation you start getting out of
memory errors, run NET_MGR and check the seek cache size in
server startup parameters. Problem report #T03524
5) LANtastic 2mpbs Windows INSTALL will create a large FILE LOOKUP
cache. The value appears to be random, at least 3 users
reporting this problem are reporting random values. Symptom:
Server will not load with out of memory errors. Problem Report
#T03524
WORKAROUND - Run Net_mgr and check FILE LOOKUP Cache.
6) If PROG-ROM v1.9 is run incorrectly using the IOBASE switch the
image will report a checksum error on load of NODERUN and REDIR
will not load from the boot server [will load from a floppy and
communicate, however]. Problem Report #T03514
WORKAROUND - Run the PROG-ROM program again and DO NOT issue the
IOBASE switch. Note that this switch should only be used with AE2/C
AE2/T or AE3 adapters when using the Find/Found type of remote
booting.
7) LANtastic 2mbps Windows INSTALL will put random characters in
the ACCOUNT SERVERS field in Net_mgr, this will give cannot
locate network name errors on Login attempts. Problem Report
#T03525
WORKAROUND - Run Net_Mgr, set Account Server to DISABLED in Server
Startup Parameters.
8) One cannot RUN the Windows Install from the harddrive - it must
be run from floppy. Problem Report #T03520
