INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Right-Click on NWFS.INF and then click on INSTALL. 

The File will then be automatically put in the DependingFileNameRequest-Key
in the Registry. The Installation will ask to reboot and during the reboot 
the new NWFS.SYS will be installed.

Until the Machine is rebooted the new file will NOT be effective. 

Another Method to install is to manually copy and replace the existing 
NWFS.SYS in the following directory:

%SystemRoot%\System32\NetWare

ISSUE: 

File copied via NAL and application object picks up additional file attributes.
The customer has application files that are copied to from a source volume 
to the users home directory on a NSS volume. When files on the source volume 
do not have any file attributes, but when it is copied to the NSS volume via 
ZENworks the Hidden, System, Read-Only, and Shareable file attributes are added
to the file.

This problem does not happen if the files are copied manually. It also only 
happens with SP3 for the 4.8 Client.
