2) Down the server and copy TTSY2KFX.NLM to the patch director as installed by the OS patch kit, in ths case the PMLOAD command will load TTSY2KFX.NLM in addition to the released patches. Or copy the patch to a different directory on the boot drive and add a seprate line to the startup.ncf to load TTSY2KFX.NLM after the load pm312 and pmload statements.
    For example:
         LOAD C:\NWSERVER\PATCHES\4START\PM312
         PMLOAD C:\NWSERVER\PATCHES\START
         LOAD C:\NWSERVER\TESTPAT\TTSY2KFX

3) Restart the server and then verify that the patch has been loaded by using the "modules" command.
