Using Netware for a CID Install of Warp

Return to The Warp Pharmacy:Software

Last update: 6th November, 1995

Symptoms
When using the Netware Requester v. 2.10 or 2.11, CID remote install fails because PMWIN.DLL cannot be found.

Hardware
Any networked environment supporting Netware.

Problem
Starting with the 2.10 Netware Requester, Novell migrated from full screen VIO messaging to Presentation Manager pop-up messaging. They did this in such a way that the requester code depended upon PMWIN.DLL and would not run without it.

Procedure
Use the Netware 2.01 requester code. This code is shipped with the Netware 3.12 server, and can also be found the Hobbes CD-ROMs from 1993. This code works adequately for the purpose of a CID install.
