Introduction
=================

ccRegMod and ccReg6 are registry modification tools for Windows 32-bit 
environments. They are designed to ensure correct registry settings for 
safe database operations in a network environment.  

For details on installing and running ccRegMod/ccReg6, see the enclosed 
file, README.TXT.

For details on what will be changed in the Win32 registry as well as an 
explanation of why these changes are necessary, see Lotus Technical 
Document #144293, "Using CCREGMOD: Recommendations for cc:Mail in 
Specific Environments." You can find this document on the following

===============================

Corrected Problem:   SPR# GHUP3N2UTQ
------------------------------------
Spurious recurring NAP1 errors appear in the CCNFT.LG file, even though 
registry settings on the workstation are already correct. This occurs when 
the NT User ID does not have rights to edit the registry (even though 
editing is not needed).

Solution:  The registry is now opened in read-only mode, so these false 
errors are no longer reported.

Actions Required:  If your environment includes NT Workstations on which 
the User ID does not have rights to edit the registry, you must log in to 
each such NT workstation with the Admin ID and run the current version of 
CCREG6.EXE or CCREGMOD.EXE manually. You only need to do this once for each 
workstation. Applications running on any such workstation will continue to 
report a NAP1 error in the CCNFT.LG until this is done.     

Corrected Problem:  SPR# DBAK3MXP4B
-----------------------------------
On Windows 95 systems, CCREGMOD conflicts with Novell Policy Template, 
changing registry settings from OFF to NO.

Solution:  OFF and NO have the same effect, so ccRegMod no longer tries to 
change an OFF registry setting to NO.

Corrected Problem:  SPR# GHUP3NHPSE
-----------------------------------
The default NT registry setting UseLockReadUnlock 0x1 (ON) causes a special 
type of SMB (Server Message Block) to be generated by the redirector. This 
SMB can cause the server or workstation to incorrectly cancel the session 
for applications that use a network path (UNC or network drive letter) to 
access a share on the same machine where the application is running. This 
is commonly the case with NTRouter and other administrative applications 
running on the NT server.  

Symptoms:  cc:Mail application errors (for example, from NT Router 
sessions) can include:

  -  File access denied
  -  Database file cannot be accessed
  -  Database file cannot be found
  -  Database file cannot be positioned
  -  Database file cannot be locked
  -  Occasional GPF from some versions of NTRouter and Link to SMTP.

Operating system symptoms can include the Microsoft NT error #240 
(Session was canceled) and #59 (An unexpected network error occurred), 
as well as other types of file I/O and file access errors.  

Solution:  Based on Microsoft recommendation, the following NT registry 
value is added:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\
Parameters  
Value:  UseLockReadUnlock
Type:   REG_DWORD
Set to: 0x0
