As such, its use is limited to the license agreement under which you obtained the original licensed copy. The following versions of LAPS which are suitable for replacement are: Version Product in which MPTS was included V2.60.5 Warp Connect V2.60.6 MPTS FixPak WR08151 V2.60.7 MPTS FixPak WR08152 V5.00.0 Warp Server V5.10.0 Warp 4.0 V5.11.1 IBM Directory and Security Server CAUTION: If TCP/IP 3.0 is installed on the system to be updated with this FixPak, TCP/IP 3.0 must also be upgraded to the TCP/IP FixPak UN00067 or TCP/IP FixPak UN00959 level in order for TCP/IP, SLIP and PPP to function properly. If the system to be updated is Warp Connect or Warp Server you need to follow the instructions under the Known Problems section. (TCP/IP 3.1 does not need an upgrade to be compatible with this updated MPTS.) Note: MPTS is Year 2000 ready with or without this FixPak. It does not require any changes to be able to handle year 2000 dates. This package includes the separately installable MPTS BonusPak (on Diskette 5), containing new applets and an upgraded CID installation utility. See the README.UTL file on Diskette 5 for additional information about the BonusPak content and installation. An updated publications diskette is also included as Diskette 6 of this package, and MAC drivers are included on Diskette 4 of the FixPak. Warning: Installation of FixPak WR08421 is for U.S. English versions only. Installing this MPTS FixPak on other language versions of OS/2 is not supported. Possible TCP/IP connection problem after WR08421 is installed. Customers installing WR08421 on Warp Connect or Warp Server workstations with TCP/IP, who use SLIP or PPP dial-up connections, should install an APAR fix that updates their SLIP, PPP, and dialer files. Using the SLIP or PPP files that came with Warp Connect or Warp Server on a workstation with WR08421 installed will result in dial-up communications failures and problems with the routing table. Customers who only have LAN-connected communications need not install the SLIP, PPP, or dialer files. However, customers that use ROUTED should intstall the appropriate APAR to update the ROUTED.EXE The fix for the problem may be obtained from one of our web sites. The fix for APAR IC17248 for Warp Connect can be downloaded from: ftp.software.ibm.com/ps/products/tcpip/fixes/v3.0os2/ic17248 or the fix for APAR IC17639 for Warp Server can be downloaded from: ftp.software.ibm.com/ps/products/tcpip/fixes/v3.1os2/ic17639 With the installation of WR08421, the TCP/IP stack has been upgraded to the OS/2 Warp 4.0 level. The most current TCP/IP stack changes can be downloaded from: ftp.software.ibm.com/ps/products/tcpip/fixes/v4.0os2/latest/stack Note: The following APARs are included in FixPak WR08421. All APARS contained in FixPaks WR08210, WR08415, and WR08419 are also included in FixPak WR08421. o APAR = IC17544 USING TCPBEUI, CONNECTION BEING DROPPED DURING FILE TRANSFER (NET MOVE FAILS) TCP is dropping the connection in the middle of file transfer when using NETBIOS over TCP/IP (tcpbeui). The setup has a server and 2 requesters. After hours of execution, one of the clients fails at NET MOVE.
