ISSUE: 

SYMPTOM

 If a NDIS Driver fails to open, the redirector would blue
 screen.  The syncronization was not correct between the
 open callback and the main initialization thread.

 SOLUTION

 Apply VMLID.SYS, 19232 bytes, 7-27-95.


 SYMPTOM

 Some applications would fail to run.  Structure changes
 in NT between versions 3.5 vs 3.51 required some
 changes to IPX.

 SOLUTION

 Apply IPXSPX.SYS, 56864 bytes, 7-27-95.
 Apply IPXAPI.SYS, 6912 bytes, 7-27-95.


 SYMPTOM

 Pending on workstation configuration, if NWIP (NetWare/IP)
 is installed the workstation will trap or blue screen at boot
 time.

 SOLUTION

 Apply NWIP.SYS, 26144 bytes, 8-25-95.

 SYMPTOM

 When accessing a shared FoxPro database,
 if you edit the memo field and try to
 save it the following error is returned: 
 "Not enough disk space" 

 SOLUTION

 Apply NWFS.SYS, 167136 bytes, 9-14-95.

 SYMPTOM

 If using a country code in a Directory Service context, when
 NT boots it asks for a password, the NetWare login fails and
 when the password is re-entered in the NetWare dialog, this
 fails because of improper context.  If typeful naming is used
 in the context then login is successful.

 SOLUTION

 Apply NWAPI32.DLL, 38400 bytes, 9-11-95.

 SYMPTOM

 When running some 32 & 16 bit Windows applications, some
 network drives are not displayed properly.

 SOLUTION

 Apply NWFS.SYS, 167104 bytes, 7-27-95.
 Apply SUPWIN32.DLL, 17920 bytes, 8-22-95.


 SYMPTOM

 When attaching and logging into a NetWare 3.11 server using
 an NDIS LAN driver, any attempts to access the directory
 structure on that 3.11 server from File Manager generates
 the error messages "Invalid handle" or "Error reading files."
 This can also happen using an ODI driver, but it is much
 less likely.

 SYMPTOM

 The Novell Redirector fails to start after reboot.  The
 following error message was logged in the Even Viewer:
 "Cannot bind to MLID with specified parameters.  Using
 default parameters."

 SOLUTION

 Apply IPXSPX.SYS, 56864 bytes, 7-13-95.
 Apply NWFS.SYS, 165632 bytes, 7-12-95.
 Apply VMLID.SYS, 19200 bytes, 7-12-95.

 SYMPTOM

 NE3200 ODI lan driver will not load or allow connection to the
network.
  The following error is in the event log:
 MSMGetPoolSupportLevel is unresolved

 SOLUTION

 Apply NE3200.LAN, 14,412 bytes,12-08-94
