CSD00.059 Allows Remoteboot to Work with MS-DOS 6.0, 6.2 (106222)
This article was previously published under Q106222
SUMMARY
Hotfix CSD00.059 allows LAN Manager Remoteboot to work with
MS-DOS 6.0 and 6.2.
MORE INFORMATION
MS-DOS 6 requires slightly more memory than MS-DOS 5. LAN Manager
Remoteboot failed with MS-DOS 6.0 and 6.2 because some rpl boot block
components (mainly RPLDISK.SYS) placed executing code in unprotected
memory, where it was overwritten by the MS-DOS 6 boot process. (Other
components were also affected.) RPLDISK.SYS is now in another location
in memory.
Install these fixed/new files immediately after installing LAN Manager
and before executing the rplsetup/rplinst step. If you add them to an
existing rpl server, re-run rplinst to set the permissions up
correctly.
No changes are needed to LANMAN\RPL\RPL.MAP. OS/2 rpl is not affected,
and no files specific to it need to change. MS-DOS 6.2 support is also
included.
