RPS v1.00.05 includes a /SCAN_DELAY switch to allow users to select how often RPS scans a print queue for a print job. Caution should be taken when decreasing the scanning interval, because performance will be degraded as network traffic increases. Problem Report Number: T06023 RPS /DETACH caused RPS users to be logged off the SERVER. This is a design issue, RPS uses the same session that the WS has with the SERVER and when the session is terminated previous redirections are lost. RPS v1.00.05 keeps the original session as long as the user has the despooler privilege. Problem Report Number: T06024 Running WordPerfect 6.0 /DOS on a WS with RPS loaded, causes the WS to lock up when exiting WP. RPS v1.00.05 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06075 RPS resets the printer before every print job. RPS v1.00.05 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06192 Users without appropriate access privileges on resources are able to access those resource. Symptoms may vary - ACL Groups *may* appear to have corruptions even if security seems to work, but the symtoms appear after user accounts have been copiedd from one server to another. NET_MGR v6.00.023 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06323 The list of commands for the command column in server management screen did not contain all possible commands for NOS6.0. NET v.6.00.035 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06325 Selecting MONOINV color scheme in NET and then running NET_MGR, the help screen will pop up in Magenta instead of MONOINV. NET_MGR v6.00.023 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06371 Machines with names of longer than 10 characters show incorrect node-id information in lancheck. LANCHECK v4.12.010 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06618 After enabling the password lock on the NET_MGR menus, NET_MGR will not accept spaces in Shared Resource Descriptions. NET_MGR v6.00.023 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T06619 LANPUP intermittently locks up the workstation since upgrading to NOS6.0. LANPUP v5.00.008 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T07165 When adding a resource that doesn't exist, 2 lines of error appear. When Enter is selected to accept the resource anyway, the second line of the error is added as the resource. The impact of this problem is that it renders foreign versions of NET_MGR unusable in a Corstream environment. NET_MGR v6.00.023 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T07904 Print screens bypass existing print jobs waiting in the queue when LPT1 is redirected to @REMOTE style port. RPS v1.00.005 fixes this problem. Problem Report Number: T08228 Change default for view print jobs from `MINE' to `ALL'. NET v6.00.035 fixes this problem. **************************************************************************** RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: **************************************************************************** Run DUT600.EXE to a temporary directory.
