1743.0. "misc questions" by ODIXIE::CHANDRASEK () Mon Feb 10 1997 11:45

    I have not used Pathworks in 18 months and you'll forgiv me for asking
    some dumb questions. I am in the process of studying the Installation
    Guide and the Admin Guide.
    
    1. I saw in an earlier note that the the dist was on
    racerx.lkg.dec.com. However, the subsets in the JAN97 Layered Products
    CD don't have the same sizes, but have later dates; at least some
    subsets on the JAN 97 LP have different sizes and dates. Which is the
    most current kit?
    
    2. When using retail clients (WIN95), apart from server licensing
    (which is a must), are there are any gotchas or peculiarities for using
    Pathworks shares as mapped drives?
    
    3. If users already have UNIX accounts in /usr/users, I suppose I
    should define the default directory for Advanced Server accounts as
    /usr/users. Right or wrong?
    
    4. Am I correct in assuming that there is no relationship between the
    UNIX domain and the Pathworks domain?
    
    
    Any replies are appreciated. If I should read more than the two manuals
    mentioned above, please let me know. I have a some understanding of
    licensing, although I wouldn't call myself an expert by any means.

2. No funnies that I know of.

4. No, no relationship at all

1743.2have you seen ECO1?VIRGIN::SUTTERWho are you ??? - I'm BATMAN !!!Wed Feb 12 1997 07:5611
The kit on the LP CD is of the 6.1 version. 

On racerx.lkg.dec.com you also find the 6.1 ECO1 kit that unfortunately
does not make it onto the LP CD's.

History has shown that you always have to use the latest ECO kit for a given
version.

    Thanks for the previous replies. I've got the ECO1 kit now. Also, I
    have understood what .1 said.
