abstract

This update is for NetWare 5.1. JAVA.NLM has been updated to correct the problem of files being inadvertently closed, especially on high speed processors. When NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 1 ships, a fixed JAVA.NLM will be included that contains the same fix that this file contains.

installation

Prior to installing any update to your server you should ensure that you have a reliable backup.

To patch the server prior to installation of NetWare 5.1:

1. Copy the NWPA.NLM into the C:\NWUPDATE directory.

2. Copy the PROXY.ZIP into the C:\NWUPDATE directory.

To patch the server after it is already installed:

1. Copy the NWPA.NLM into the C:\NWSERVER directory.

2. Copy the JAVA.NLM into the SYS:JAVA\BIN directory.

issue

1. Java hang with no retry window. This has been fixed by the Java team with a new JAVA.NLM.

2. Media Manager hang when changing CD media. This is fixed with a the NWPA.NLM.

3. Java file copy failure. A premature file descripter close in JAVA.NLM that has existed since we shipped NW 5.0. Also fixed in a new JAVA.NLM.
