Program Problems?
=================
If you experience any problems with any of the applications, then we really
want to hear from you. Please drop us an e-mail message and we will do our best
to resolve your problem.
Common Problems
===============
1) Applications crash when attempting to start
If you installed this version and still have an older version on your system
either remove it or remove the old version's directory from the LIBPATH.
In general, make sure that there is only one copy of NEOLOGIC.DLL on
your system and it resides in the new installation's DLL directory.
2) Applications start but are not registered.
Copy the netsuite.cfg fle from your installation disk or previous version
into the base directory for the V4.5 release. Alternately, run the
Register program and reenter the codes manually.
3) FTPD crashes or reports a bad or missing FTPD.DLL
If you installed NNS V4.5 into a new directory but have a copy of NetSuite
V2.x still on your system, update the LIBPATH statement to remove the
reference to the previous version of FTPD.DLL and reboot.
4) News loads but does not update the subscriptions properly
Make sure that the username and password fields in the configuration
notebook are blank. If they contain information, remove this data and
restart News.
This information is used only for news servers which require a special
login process. Very few servers require this.
Upgrades
========
It is our policy to offer free upgrades from previous versions of NNS,
LA Times, and LA Gopher. If you have previously registered NNS, you
can re-enter your registration keys to enable the shareware version. You can
find these keys in the NETSUITE.CFG file of you old installation.
If you are a registered user of LA Times or LA Gopher please contact us to
arrange for some registration keys.
