README FOR 286DWN.EXE
This README file of 286DWN.EXE accompanies 22DOWN (for NetWare v2.2) and
215DOWN (for NetWare v2.15)
Purpose/issue:
This fix is intended for all versions of NetWare v2.2 or v2.15 for
dedicated and non-dedicated servers. This patch fixes the ABEND message
"Stack overflow" that occurs if any DOS process has more than 25 files open
at the time the server is DOWNed.
This patch allocates more space so that the "stack overflow" ABEND does not
occur at the time the server is downed, if there are 240 or less open files
per process. With this patch, if the server is downed while files are open,
the message "files still open, do you want to down the server?" will appear
at the file server console.
INSTALLATION
See the individual readme files included in the .EXE file for installation
instructions on your version of Netware.
