You may want to wait a minute to make sure all the modules have been unloaded. It is also recommended that the latest Winsock modules are updated as well. As of this writing, the latest Winsock modules are in WSOCK4F.EXE (TID 2960252). ISSUE: DPCWIN32.DLL & DPRWIN32.DLL 28AUG2000: Solution 10058445 - Page fault in NWADMN32 when creating and NDPS printer with long Printer Device ID string. DPLSV386.NLM 24JAN2001: Solution 10058765: Abend in DPLSV386.NLM with HPGATE running when loading NDPSM.NLM. DPRPCNLM.NLM 05JUN2001: Solution 10060787: Abend in KLIB.NLM with an NDPS process running. LPR2NDPS.NLM 23MAY2001: Solution NOVL54823: ABENDs caused by malformed packets being sent to the server. NDPDS.NLM 23MAY2001 & PH.NLM 29JAN2001: Solution 10057991 - Addresses ability to pass NDPS username to Unix print servers via LPR using the Novell Printer Gateway. Banner pages generated through the Novell Printer Gateway to Unix print servers were not identifying the actual NDPS username and instead simply identified the printer agent name. Solution 10057992 - Novell Port Handler does not show proper status and hangs on shutdown. Status of the printer to go from "Printing" to "I/O Error" and never recovers from the "I/O Error" state. Solution 10057434 - Printing to LPR-based printer using Novell Printer Gateway in LPR mode results in slow delivery of print data and slow print job processing times. Solution 10062898: Printer agents show status of "Idle" even though there are print jobs waiting to be serviced. NDPSM.NLM v2.20I 22MAY2001: Solution 10058780: Abend while NDPSM_Q_Polling process running after installing Novell NetWare 5.1 SP2 or Novell NetWare 5.0 SP6. Solution 10058884: Server hanging after starting NDPS Manager with LEXGATE-based printer agents or CPU Hog Detected abend on LEXGW_TaskThrd_0. Fixes a problem of a request from the client to bind to a printer agent with no printerName. Fixes a problem when _DisposeJob was unnecessarily called multiple times causing an ABEND. NTFYSMTP.ENM 07NOV2000: Event Notification Service (ENS - running on the NDPS Broker) sends malformed packets to an Exchange server. The (ENS) sends an SMTP message with an invalid name in the "originator name" field. The originator address shows as: , with spaces in the name and no quote marks around the address. NTFYSRVR.NLM 10JUL2001 & RMANSRVR.NLM 28JUN2001 Solution 10063974: The NDPS Broker / NTFYSRVR ABENDs when an SLP scope is defined. PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE MODULES SHOULD ONLY BE APPLIED TO A SP2A/SP6A SERVER.
