2507.0. "NET.CFG destroyed by HUBwatch V4.0 installation" by STRWRS::KOCH_P (It never hurts to ask...) Thu Jul 13 1995 00:02

    
    I have a customer who is using the ODI Netware interface for HUBwatch.
    Upon installing HUBwatch, it OVERWROTE the NET.CFG file but didn't tell
    us it was doing it or ask our permission. Is this a bug in the HUBwatch
    installation procedure?

2507.1	HUBwatch does not provide a NET.CFG file	NETCAD::WAGNERCOFFIL		`Fri Jul 14 1995 15:01`	15

Imposssible! HUBwatch installation does not provide a NET.CFG file. The installation only provides a NETFG.TMP file which the user has to modify manually and rename to the NET.CFG filename. This procedure is documented in the READ_ME.TXT. You should not be installing with the network if you have a network setup already. Even in this case, the NET.CFG would not get overwritten because we do not provide a NET.CFG file. >> Is this a bug in the HUBwatch installation procedure? NO.

	Well, it must have been some strange co-incidence then. Before we started, the NET.CFG was working with their software and after HUBwatch was installed, it was a simple, plain NET.CFG. Strange. I better call Mulder & Scully.
