Legal use of this patch is limited to licensed users of Novell products which bundle Netscape Navigator. Release notes for this version of the Netscape Navigator are available online. After starting the program, select "Release Notes" from the "Help" menu. The following URL lists new features and known problems of this release: http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/1.1/relnotes/windows-1.1.ht- ml ====== Win32s ====== If you are running version 1.15 or below of Win32s, you will be unable to install the Netscape Navigator unless you upgrade to version 1.20 of Win32s or unless you remove Win32. You can determine which version of Win32s you have in one of two ways: - check the WIN32S.INI file in your Windows system directory - if you are running Windows for Workgroups, select the WIN32S16.DLL file from the Windows system directory in File Manager. Then from the File menu, choose Properties. The Version line contains the major version and the build number. To remove Win32s, do the following: 1. Remove the following line from the [386Enh] section in the SYSTEM.INI file: device=\\win32s\w32s.386 where and are where the Windows and System directories are, respectively. 2. Remove WINMM16.DLL from the following line from the [BOOT] section in the SYSTEM.INI file: drivers=mmsystem.dll winmm16.dll 3. Delete the following files from the \ subdirectory: W32SYS.DLL WIN32S16.DLL WIN32S.INI 4. Delete all the files in the \\WIN32S subdirectory. Then delete the subdirectory itself. 5. Restart Windows. Here's how you can obtain Win32s version 1.2 which Microsoft refers to as application note PW1118: To obtain this Microsoft Application Note (number PW1118) and the files included with it, download self-extracting file PW1118.EXE from the Microsoft Software Library (MSL) on the following services: - CompuServe GO MSL Search for PW1118.EXE Display results and download - Microsoft Download Service (MSDL) Dial (206) 936-6735 to connect to MSDL Download PW1118.EXE - Internet (anonymous FTP) ftp ftp.microsoft.com Change to the \SOFTLIB\MSLFILES directory Get PW1118.EXE ======== OLE 2.02 ======== The Netscape install program for Windows 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups will install the following OLE2 files into the Windows System directory if either there is no existing DLL or the existing DLL is older: COMPOBJ.DLL 108544 10-10-94 MFCOLEUI.DLL 146976 1-13-95 OLE2.DLL 302592 10-10-94 OLE2.REG 27026 10-10-94 OLE2CONV.DLL 57328 10-10-94 OLE2DISP.DLL 164832 10-10-94 OLE2NLS.DLL 150976 10-10-94 OLE2PROX.DLL 51712 10-10-94 STDOLE.TLB 4304 10-10-94 STORAGE.DLL 157696 10-10-94 TYPELIB.DLL 177216 10-10-94 ===================================== Configuring the Netscape Audio Player ===================================== For Windows NT, you must manually configure the audio player as a Netscape Navigator helper application. To do this from the Options menu choose Preferences. Then select Helper Applications as the category on which to set preferences. For both the audio/x-aiff and the audio/basic file types you need to specify the full pathname to the Netscape audio player. Typically this will be the following pathname: C:\NETSCAPE\NAPLAYER.EXE The Netscape Audio Player does not work with beta 2 of Windows 95, and will report "Sound device not available" even if you have one available and working. ============= International ============= The Netscape installer will overwrite existing OLE2 DLLs with the latest versions for US Windows. This will not affect 32-bit Windows. For 16-bit Windows, the only difference between the US and the Japanese versions are the internationalization of error strings. Occasionally, the Japanese user may see an English language OLE2 error message after installing Netscape. Currently, there are no Japanese versions available for the OLE2 DLLs. Netscape is working with Microsoft to make the Japanese version of the OLE2 DLLs available. ================ Running Netscape ================ What do I need to run Netscape Navigator? You must have a direct Internet connection before you can use Netscape. The ability to send and receive e-mail does not necessarily mean you can run Netscape. There are three requirements for Netscape Navigator 1.1: 1. A direct Ethernet connection to the net, or a dialup SLIP or PPP account from an Internet service provider. 2. Novell's TCP/IP 16-bit or 32-bit client protocol stack. 3. Netscape Navigator software. You can get a direct connection to the Internet through a service provider in your area. You will need to get a SLIP or a PPP account from an Internet provider (for a dialup account). ======================= Cannot Find WINSOCK.DLL ======================= If you get the error message "Cannot find WINSOCK.DLL" when running Netscape Navigator that means your computer is looking for the WINSOCK.DLL file. This file will normally be found in \NET\BIN\WINSOCK.DLL. If you do not load your TCP/IP protocol stack, you will get this error. A Winsock package makes it so that your PC can talk TCP/IP, which is necessary for Netscape to run. See the "Running Netscape" section for details on running the Netscape Navigator, and the "Obtaining a Winsock Package" section for suggestions on obtaining a Winsock package. Loading the SL/IP or PPP drivers but not connecting to your Internet Service Provider allows you to load WINSOCK.DLL, which in turn allows you to load Netscape Navigator. In this scenario, you must connect to your Internet Service Provider before remote hosts can be accessed via the browser, although you may view local HTML (.HTM) files.

If you are running Win3.x you must use the 16-bit version even if you are running Win32s, because the 32-bit version makes use of 32-bit API calls not supported by Win32s. Both the 16-bit and 32-bit versions includes an installation program. To install Netscape run the SETUP.EXE program. The Netscape installation program will install Netscape in a directory of your choice, add a Netscape section to your WIN.INI file, and create a Program Manager group and item. * Initialization File The self extracting archive for the Netscape Navigator contains the initialization file NETSCAPE.INI, which has entries for all of the values you can customize for the Netscape Navigator. * Please read the release notes under "Help -> Release Notes". ----------------------------------------------------------------- Any trademarks referenced in this document are the property of their respective owners.
