Novell VLM Client Files Not Removed When COMMAND /C Used (138409)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q138409 SYMPTOMS
When you upgrade a computer running Novell's VLM network client to Windows
95, Setup installs the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks to replace the
real-mode VLM client files, but may not remove the VLM client files if they
are loaded from a batch file other than the Autoexec.bat file.
CAUSE
Setup does not remove the VLM client files if they are loaded from a batch
file that is called using the "command /c <name>.bat" method in the
Autoexec.bat file. Setup does remove the VLM client files if they are
called using the "call <name>.bat" method.
RESOLUTION
You must manually disable (or remark out) the "command /c" command in the
Autoexec.bat file.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this issue and will post additional information
here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
The MS-DOS CALL command was introduced in MS-DOS version 3.3. This command
is used to call a batch file from another batch file. The CALL command
replaces the older method of calling a batch file with the "command /c"
command.
Windows 95 Setup does not recognize the older "command /c" command.
