details
System Requirements:
This patch is designed to update the Novell Client v4.91 SP5. Be sure to install only on this version of the Novell Client. Also, install only on Windows XP SP3. The changes made in this build rely upon new interfaces that were introduced in Windows XP SP3; it is not backwards-compatible with XP SP2 or earlier versions.
Installation:
1. (Optional) Rename the existing noveap.dll (with a .old extension, for example) in the
2. Install the files by doing ONE of the following:
a) Run _491psp5_noveap.bat file.
b) Right-Click on _491psp5_noveap.inf and click on INSTALL.
c) Manually copy and replace the existing file 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 SP5 installation set. Such that when SETUPNW.EXE is run to install the Novell Client, you will be installing the core 4.91 SP5 client and the updates contained in this package in one operation. To update the installation set with the file(s) in this updated package, copy the directory structure over the top of the matching directory structure found in the Novell Client 4.91 SP5 installation set.
SETUPIP Users Note: This update package contains a file named "readme.html". Presence of such a file in the Novell Client installation set can cause download via SETUPIP to fail, because many web servers treat files such as readme.html and index.html specially and will change the format of the file listings SETUPIP is trying to obtain from the web server. When overlaying this update package onto a Novell Client installation set that will be used for SETUPIP download, either remove or do not copy the readme.html file when overlaying the files.
Technical Support Information:
New Fixes included in this release:
1. 802.1x error "No connections to authenticate" on Windows XP SP3. (Bug 397557)
Due to design changes, enabling the debug log is now different from older versions of NOVEAP.DLL. The registry configuration to enable debug logging is now:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Novell\NOVEAP]
"DebugLogDebugLevel"=dword:00000001
The .INF included in this patch contains a section for enabling this debug, but the AddReg= directive to invoke the section is commented so that the .INF isn't actually creating these values.
See TID 7005241 for more information about debug options.
