The version of IPTUNNEL.LAN to be updated is v1.00, dated February 8, 1991. IPTUNNEL.LAN will be updated to v1.02 dated October 19, 1991. The original file has a byte count of 5912. The updated file has a byte count of 6061. FIXES ----------------------------------------------------------------- IPTUNNEL.LAN v1.02 fixes a bug that caused the server to ABEND when IP packets are fragmented within the IP tunnel. INSTALLATION ---------------------------------------------------------------- Installation of the patch is performed at a workstation with about 1mb of free disk space and connection to the NetWare server containing the IPTUNNEL.LAN to be updated. The procedure is: - create a temporary area on the workstation - load the patch files and the IPTUNNEL.LAN in the temporary area - execute the patch - transfer the updated IPTUNNEL.LAN back to the server Though the procedure updates the IPTUNNEL.LAN from the server, IPTUNNEL.LAN from the SYSTEM-3 NetWare 3.11 diskette can be used and later loaded on the server. IPTUNNEL.LAN can be found on the SYSTEM-3 diskette in the directory \TCPIP\SYSTEM. 1) On the workstation, create a temporary directory to contain the patch files and a sub directory to contain IPTUNNEL.LAN. MKDIR \TEMP CD \TEMP MKDIR IPTEMP 2) Load the patch files to the directory TEMP. (This procedure assumes the patch files are on diskette. Drive A is used for the location of the patch files.) COPY A:*.* 3) Login or attach to the NetWare server as supervisor and map a drive to SYS:SYSTEM. (Drive X: is used for demonstration purposes.) ATTACH servername\SUPERVISOR PASSWORD:password MAP X:=servername\SYS:SYSTEM 4) Remove the READ ONLY attribute from IPTUNNEL.LAN and create a backup copy. X: FLAG IPTUNNEL.LAN N NCOPY IPTUNNEL.LAN IPTUNNEL.SAV 5) Copy IPTUNNEL.LAN to the temporary directory. NCOPY X:IPTUNNEL.LAN C:\TEMP\IPTEMP\IPTUNNEL.LAN 6). Set the current directory to the temporary directory containing the Patch files and execute the patch. C: CD \TEMP PATCH IPT102 7) Check the date and size of the file IPTUNNEL.LAN to ensure the file is updated. DIR IPTEMP\IPTUNNEL.LAN The file date should now be 10-19-91 and the byte count should be 6061. 8) Copy IPTUNNEL.LAN back to SYS:SYSTEM NCOPY C:\TEMP\IPTEMP\IPTUNNEL.LAN X:IPTUNNEL.LAN 9) Set the current drive to the Network drive and replace the READ ONLY attribute to IPTUNNEL.LAN. X: FLAG IPTUNNEL.LAN ROS 10) Logout of the server and delete the temporary directories. LOGOUT servername C: CD \TEMP\IPTEMP DEL *.* CD .. DEL *.* RMDIR IPTEMP CD .. RMDIR TEMP 11) If the IPTUNNEL is currently loaded, go to the server console, unload the module and reload the IPTUNNEL.LAN. :UNLOAD IPTUNNEL.LAN :LOAD IPTUNNEL.LAN The update is now complete. Refer to the NetWare TCP/IP Supervisor's Guide for usage of IPTUNNEL. ÿ
