READ.ME for IC16782.EXE
Abstract:
---------
APAR Module(s) Abstract
------- ---------- ---------------------------------------
IC16782 afinet.sys SELF CONNECTS AND SIMULTANEOUS OPENS ( 4.4BSD )
Description:
------------
This package provides replacement modules for the OS/2 Warp V4, TCP/IP V4.0
stack and DLL's. Note that service is cumulative. See the Change History
below for the APARs applied to the stack and DLL's since product GA.
Installation instructions:
--------------------------
You must have the following installed on your system:
- TCP/IP V4.0 and MPTN from OS/2 Warp Version 4, component id 5639B1700,
R510.
- The fix for IC16063 (see below for a description).
1. You should create a temporary directory and decompress (unzip) IC16223.EXE
into it. Enter the following:
IC16782 .
No subdirectories are created.
2. Since some of the files are locked by the system (the DLL's), to replace
them you must now perform a shutdown of your OS/2 system.
The directions below will walk you thru the procedure for replacing
these files.
3. Reboot your system.
4. As soon as your system begins to boot, and you see the OS2 with a small
white block in the upper left corner of your screen, depress the ALT key and
the F1 key at the same time (ALT-F1).
5. The Recovery Choices screen should be displayed. Press F2 to
get a command prompt.
6. Your system will now continue to boot, and should complete with an [X:\]
prompt, where "X" is your boot drive.
7. Change to the drive and temporary directory in which you unzipped the
IC16782.EXE file.
8. The files listed in this directory should replace ANY EXISTING FILES of
the same name currently on your system. DO NOT create a subdirectory for
these files and simply place it in your PATH in CONFIG.SYS. If you do,
it will create multiple copies of DLL'S, and EXE's etc, which could cause
erratic behavior of your operating system.
9. Place the files in directories as listed in the "Contents" section below.
Note that "y:" is the drive on which MPTN was installed.
10. Reboot your system. You can use Ctrl-Alt-Del.
11. Your system should now start normally and all file changes will be in
effect.
12. When your system has completed startup, you can verify that the new
TCP/IP stack is running by issuing the following command from an OS/2
command prompt:
INETVER
The following should be displayed:
Inet Version: 4.01h

APAR fixes included in IC16063:
------------------------------
IC16063 provides replacement modules for the OS/2 Warp V4, TCP/IP V4.0
stack, DLL's, and stack applications. This is a consolidation of service
fixes to Warp Connect and Warp Server, forward-fitted to OS/2 Warp V4 TCP/IP,
since GA (see below for the list of APARs).
Also, the OS/2 Warp V4 TCP/IP stack was consolidated with the TCP/IP stack
for Comm Server V4.1.
