AntiVirus Lab, SYMANTEC/Peter Norton Product Group
November 1, 1993
******************************************************************
Loading New Definitions
To update NAV 3.0 or NAV for NetWare 1.0 with new virus definitions,
do the following:
Note: Each definition set completely replaces the current set so
only the latest is required.
For NAV 3.0, from DOS:
1) Insert the definition update disk into the floppy disk drive.
(The example below uses A: drive.)
2) To update the definition files, type the following at the DOS prompt:
COPY A:\NAV30\VIR*.* C:\NAV
where "C:\NAV" is the directory where your antivirus software is
installed.
3) The next time you run NAV, the new definitions will automatically be used.
For NAV for NetWare 1.0, from DOS:
1) Map a drive letter (the example below uses H:) to the volume and
directory where NAV for NetWare is installed. Insert the definition
update disk into the floppy drive, the example below uses A:.
2) To update the definition files, type the following at the DOS prompt:
COPY A:\NAV30\VIR*.* H:
where H: is mapped to the volume/directory where NAV for NetWare is
installed.
3) Disable, then Enable, NAV for NetWare, using either the NAV for NetWare
Windows configuration component, or at the server console using the
function keys. This loads the new definitions for use.
