Rather than linking with WAPPC32.DLL or WCPIC32.DLL, some 32-bit programs link to DLLs with older names (WINAPPC.DLL, WINCPIC.DLL, etc.). This fix allows those programs to continue to operate without change by providing stub DLLs with the older names. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Jr11968.exe is a self-extracting file containing two more self-extracting files, client.exe and server.exe. Client.exe contains the 5 replacement .DLL files for SNA API clients. Server.exe contains the 3 replacement .DLL files for the CSNT 5.01 server. Note that some filenames are duplicated between the client and server .DLLs, but these files are NOT identical. When extracting these files, be careful to not overwrite client .DLLs with server .DLLs or vice versa. The PARTS LIST for JR11968.exe is as follows: SHIPPED (fn ft) Description client.exe self-extracting file for SNA API client .DLLs server.exe self-extracting file for CSNT server .DLLs jr11968.txt (this readme file) The PARTS LIST for client.exe is as follows: SHIPPED (fn ft) Description WINAPPC.DLL Stub APPC DLL uses WAPPC32.DLL WINCPIC.DLL Stub CPI-C DLL uses WCPIC32.DLL WINCSV.DLL Stub CSV DLL uses WINCSV32.DLL WINRUI.DLL Stub RUI DLL uses WINRUI32.DLL WINSLI.DLL Stub SLI DLL uses WINSLI32.DLL The PARTS LIST for server.exe is as follows: SHIPPED (fn ft) Description WINAPPC.DLL Stub APPC DLL uses WAPPC32.DLL WINCPIC.DLL Stub CPI-C DLL uses WCPIC32.DLL WINCSV.DLL Stub CSV DLL uses WINCSV32.DLL Installing the fix on the system: 1) Be SURE you have downloaded the jr11968.exe file in BINARY format. 2) Create a Temp directory and copy jr11968.exe into the temporary directory and run the file to uncompress it. Then create separate directories for the client .DLLs and server .DLLs. Copy client.exe to its directory and run the file, and copy server.exe to its directory and run the file. 3) Stop Communications Server for Windows NT (including your node, Node Operations, Node Configuration, Log Viewer, and any other CS/NT components you have started). Note that there may still be CS/NT-related services running on the machine after stopping these applications, but this is normal and will not affect the installation of this fix package. IMPORTANT! If this is an APAR fix, carefully compare the dates of the parts supplied with this APAR fix with the dates of the parts you are replacing (if they already exist). If ANY of the parts being replaced are more recent than the parts shipped with this APAR, discontinue the installation of this fix and contact Customer Support for clarification. 4) Copy the new files from the server temporary directory to the x:\WINNT\system32 directory where x:\WINNT is the directory where Windows NT is installed. 5) Shutdown and Restart the CS/NT server machine. 6) Restart your CS/NT node. 7) For any SNA API clients that require this fix, copy the files from the client temporary directory to the SNA API Client subdirectory (c:\CSNTAPI is the default).
