This file contains instructions about upgrading your DE file from any
version of LinkUp below 1.50 to 1.50 or higher. The procedure is very
simple and is as follows:
Step 1:
Compile(see DE.C) and replace all of the current DE files with your
new ones, Please note that the Passwords in the DE files AND in LinkUp
are CASE SENSITIVE.
Step 2:
Run LinkUp(DO NOT Unzip the new version of LinkUp yet!!! If you do
you may be sorry!). While in the version you had, send out all of the
new DE files to all systems(as of version 1.50 EVERYONE MUST have ALL
of your DE files!!! I plan to change this before the next release
though.)
Step 3:
Now that all of your DE files are waiting you go out, you can either
force the call outs or just wait, this part is up to you, and may be
skipped...
Step 4:
Unzip the new version of LinkUp, and run it. The first time you run
it you will be asked for your encryption passwords, be sure they are
the SAME as the ones you compiled into your DE file, otherwise your
updates will NOT go through properly!!! You may send out any updates
you want now, even if all systems have not gotten the new DE files
yet, the DE files are contained in earlier "messages" and will be
processed first, so it is ok to send them out if you wish...
Step 5:
Unzip LinkUpGC, and LinkUpSC and distribute accordingly, BE SURE to
include a copy of the file LINKUP.CFG with each module, this file
contains ALL of your encryption passwords! If they do not have the
file, they cannot run their modules!
Step 6:
Sit back and enjoy your new faster and better encryption/decryption!
C-ya Later!
