SYMPTOMS
========

If you are using shared packages after applying Systems Management Server 1.2
Service Pack 2, the Windows 95 clients may get a general protection fault (GPF)
in Appctl95 when logging on to a Novell NetWare network. No error will occur
with clients logging on to a Windows NT network. Also, if there are no shared
packages at the client workstation, no error will occur.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, perform the following steps to use the original
Systems Management Server 1.2 version of Nadapi95.dll:

1. Retrieve Nadapi95.dl_ from the Systems Management Server 1.2 CD and rename
  the file to Nadapi95.dll (it is not compressed).

2. Copy Nadapi95.dll to the Sms\Site.srv\Maincfg.box\Client.src\X86.bin\
  directory on the computer running Systems Management Server. Nadapi95.dll
  will be replicated to your logon servers from this directory.

3. After Nadapi95.dll is on the logon servers, then the System.map file in a
  text editor such as Notepad and then save it. Be sure to make no changes to
  the System.map file. Simply opening the file and saving it will update the
  time stamp, which causes the clients to go into verify mode. The client will
  then get the correct Nadapi95.dll copied to its Windows directory.

STATUS
======

version 1.2 Service Pack 2. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft
