- support for internationalization and NetWare alerts.
-
- CLIB.NLM 3.12, revision D for NetWare 3.11, NetWare SFT III, and NetWare 3.12
- was improved in several areas.
-
- ■ Errors in Queue Management Services in handling job or form types and
- memory corruption while servicing a queue were corrected.
-
- ■ Problems in handling connections and deleting files on remote servers were
- corrected.
-
- ■ Service Advertising Protocol interfaces were fixed for SFT III IO engine

- as Gupta and Oracle. The behavior is as follows:
-
- 1. As the time changes from 23-OCT-1993 23:59:59 to 00:00:00 24-OCT-1993, the
- time and date obtained from CLIB.NLM will be pushed FORWARD one hour.
-
- 2. As the time changes from 30-OCT-1993 23:59:59 to 00:00:00 31-OCT-1993, the
- time and date obtained from CLIB.NLM will be pushed BACKWARD one hour.
-
- CLIB.NLM 4.01, revision D for NetWare 4.01 was also improved to correct the
- following abend message.
-
- When NLMs such as PSERVER are unloaded, the server will abend with the
- following message:
-
- MESSAGE
-
- Abend: SERVER-4.00-362: CloseScreen called with a screen that
- is still being used.
-
-
