SYMPTOMS
========
After following the procedure for updating LAN Manager 1.x Enhanced and
100-percent compatible networks described in the NET.TXT file that is included
with the MS-DOS 6.0 and 6.2 Supplemental Kit, you may receive the following
error messages at startup:
NET 2413 : incorrect MS-DOS version.
NET 2413 : incorrect MS-DOS version, error spawning workstation.
CAUSE
=====
These errors occur because the NETWKSTA.EXE file, which is used to start the
workstation, requires an entry in the MS-DOS 6 version table.
WORKAROUND
==========
To correct this problem, add NETWKSTA.EXE to the Setver version table as MS-DOS
4.01 and ensure that SETVER.EXE is being loaded from the CONFIG.SYS file, as
follows:
1. Make sure that SETVER.EXE is being loaded in your CONFIG.SYS file. For
example:
device=c:\dos\setver.exe
2. Once your system has restarted completely, enter the following at an MS-DOS
command prompt:
" setver netwksta.exe 4.01" (without the quotation marks)
You should receive a message regarding the application that you are adding to the
MS-DOS 6.0 version table. This is normal. If the version table was successfully
updated, you can reboot your system, and the change will take effect.
MORE INFORMATION
================
