Note :-
Since RPL code of Netware 4.10 has a bug that it can not work properly
with 32K PROM, the RPL code has to be replaced with Netware 4.02 RPL
code. The instructions and relevant files can be extracted as follows,
Run A:\RBOOT\NETWARE\NW402.PAT\RPL402.EXE
Extract the file in c:\rpl
For Netware versions earlier than Netware 4.10, the above bugfix is not
required.
In Netware 4.10, Please find below the instructions to implement the BUG
FIX RPL code.
aa. Login to Netware 4.10 with admin rights.
bb. Flag the files F:\SYSTEM\ RPL.NLM and F:\LOGIN\RBOOT.RPL
as READ, WRITE.
cc. Rename the RPL.NLM and RBOOT.RPL as Bak files.
dd. Copy the RPL.NLM and RBOOT.RPL in to the SYSTEM and LOGIN directory
respectively.
F:\ COPY C:\RPL\RPL.NLM F:\SYSTEM
F:\ COPY C:\RPL\RBOOT.RPL F:\LOGIN
ee. Restart the server and load RPL.NLM. Bind RPL to the LAN driver.
