1.0 Introduction
-----------------
TCP/IP-32 version 3.11a is an update to Microsoft's TCP/IP-32, a 32-bit
TCP/IP network protocol stack for Windows for Workgroups version 3.11. This
update is a complete refresh of TCP/IP-32 and contains all components of
the product.
2.0 Installation Instructions for TCP/IP-32 3.11a
--------------------------------------------------
If you are running a 3rd party TCP/IP product on your system, you must
remove it before installing Microsoft TCP/IP-32 version 3.11a. If you
experience difficulties with another vendor's product, remove the existing
TCP/IP stack, exit Network Setup completely, reboot your system, and then
proceed to add the Microsoft TCP/IP-32 version 3.11a drivers by following
the instructions below.
There are two ways you can install the TCP/IP-32 version 3.11a upgrade on
your computer. You can completely reinstall your TCP/IP-32 network protocol
stack with TCP/IP-32 3.11a, which will overwrite your previous TCP/IP
settings with default settings. Alternatively, advanced users can manually
copy just the updated binary files to the proper directories. This will
retain your TCP/IP-32 settings, but will not update the TCP/IP-32 version
number.
Complete Reinstall:
1. From the Network group, choose the Network Setup icon.
2. Choose the Drivers button (Under Network Drivers, you will see your
Network Interface Card (NIC) and the network protocols used on that
NIC).
3. Select TCP/IP-32 3.11.
4. Choose the Setup button, review and write down all of your TCP/IP-32
configuration information.
5. Choose the Cancel button to return to the Network Drivers dialog box.
6. If TCP/IP-32 3.11 is your only network protocol, then temporarily add
the NetBEUI network protocol by following these steps:
A. Choose the Add Protocol button.
B. Select Microsoft NetBEUI.
C. Choose the OK button (Microsoft NetBEUI will appear under Network
Drivers).
7. Select TCP/IP-32 3.11.
8. Choose the Remove button and then the Yes button to confirm.
9. Choose the Add Protocol button.
10.Select Unlisted or Updated Protocol and Choose the OK button.
11.In the Install Driver dialog box, enter the path to the updated TCP/IP-
32 3.11a files (You should then see Microsoft TCP/IP-32 3.11a in the
Unlisted or Updated Protocol dialog).
12.Choose the OK button (You should then see Microsoft TCP/IP-32 3.11a in
the Network Drivers dialog box).
13.Choose the Setup button and configure TCP/IP-32 3.11a based on the
information you wrote down in step 4.
14.If you added Microsoft NetBEUI as a network protocol in step 6 and do
not want to keep it, select Microsoft NetBEUI, choose the Remove button
and then the Yes button to confirm.
15.Choose the Close button to exit the Network Divers dialog box.
16.Choose the OK button to exit the Network Setup dialog box (Setup will
modify system files).
17.Choose the OK button (Network Setup prompts you to reboot).
18.Choose the Restart Computer button (The TCP/IP-32 3.11a upgrade is now
complete).
Manual Installation for Advanced Users:
1. Copy the following files to the C:\<win_root> directory:
NOTE: By default, the Windows root directory referred to above is
C:\WINDOWS. If you installed Windows into a directory other than
C:\WINDOWS, copy these files to that directory.

2.2 Description of Bugs Fixed in TCP/IP-32 3.11a
-------------------------------------------------
TCP/IP-32 version 3.11 Does Not Include Terminal Font:
Beta versions of Microsoft TCP/IP-32 included a font named "Terminal"
in the Telnet application. This font is not included in the released
version of the TCP/IP-32 Telnet application.
DNS Reverse Name Resolution Requests Are Incorrect:
TCP/IP-32 does not return the correct IP name when it queries the Domain
Name Service (DNS) because it sends an improperly formatted query to the
DNS.
NBT Query Can Hang Computer or Drop Back To MS-DOS:
Your computer running Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 with TCP/IP-32
network protocol stops responding (hangs) or drops back to MS-DOS when
the 32-bit NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NBT) makes a query to the Domain Name
Service (DNS).
LMHOSTS Lookup Can Cause Intermittent System Pauses:
Your computer running Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 with TCP/IP-32
intermittently stops responding (hangs) for about 20 seconds at a time.
This occurs if TCP/IP-32 is installed as a non-default network protocol
and the Enable LMHOSTS Lookup option in Network Setup is checked.
TCP/IP-32 Winsock Stops FD_READ Notification:
FD_READ notification in a Winsock application may stop while the
application is running. This may cause data to be left in the input
buffer, or, it may cause the application to hang. This occurs when the
application disables and then re-enables FD_READ notification during a
period of time while the Windows message queue is full.
Winsock: Accept() Sockets Are Unexpectedly Aborted:
Occasionally, when you execute a PUT command from an FTP client, your
session to the FTP server is aborted.
