Catalogue of Novell Updates for NetWare
3.11, 3.12, and 4.01
Novell have during the course of time released a number of updates for
NetWare 3.11, 3.12, and 4.01. As and when these updates are received by Apricot's
Technical Support Group, we issue bulletins explaining what these updates are, and where
they can be obtained. Although a useful notification, long term these individual bulletins
can be difficult to use when attempting to upgrade a newly installed server.
To try and ease this problem, we have compiled a list of NetWare update
modules, and placed them all in a single text-file that can be downloaded from the Apricot
Insight BBS bulletin board in File Area 37. This file, called NWUPDATE.TXT, will be
updated whenever we receive a new NetWare update from Novell, and will always reflect the
current status of any update files relevant to NetWare 3.11, 3.12 and/or 4.01. The file
only lists updates that are relevant to the core operating system however, so updates to
communications products (TCP/IP, NFS, MAC etc.), database products (btrieve), and NetWare
operating system patches will not be listed in the file. NetWare operating system patches
will always be documented in an IPB when new patches are released.
All the updates that are referred to in NWUPDATE.TXT can be downloaded
from Apricot Insight BBS (also in File Area 37).
As a general policy, Apricot recommend that any updates released by
Novell are implemented on any relevant servers, and this list can be used to ensure that
all relevant updates that exist at a given time are used.
Please remember that NWUPDATE.TXT will be dynamic, in that when new
updates are released, the file will be updated to reflect the new updates, therefore
Apricot Insight BBS should be checked periodically for new versions of this file.
