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.
