details

System Requirements:
This patch is designed to update the Novell Client v4.91 SP4 for Windows 2000/XP/2003. Be sure to install only on this version of the client.

Installation:
1. (Optional) Rename the existing lgnwnt32.dll, loginw32.dll, loginw32.exe, novnpnt.dll, and nwgina.dll (with a .old extension, for example) in the \System32 folder. Do not reboot before proceeding!
2. Install the files by doing ONE of the following:
a) Run the supplied .bat file appropriate for the language of the installed client.
b) Right-Click on the supplied .inf appropriate for the language of the installed client and click on INSTALL.
c) Manually copy and replace the existing files in the directory listed in Step 1, above.
3. You will be prompted to reboot. This reboot is required to complete the installation.

The files in this package can also be overlaid on top of a Novell Client 4.91 SP4 installation set so that when SETUPNW.EXE is run to install the Novell client you will be installing the core 4.91 SP4 client and the updates contained in this package in one operation. To update the installation set with the file in this patch set, copy the directory structure over the top of the i386 folder in your "Novell Client 4.91 SP4" installation.
