_______________________________________________
INSTALLATION

1. Download the NetWare .ZIP file from the
   Network Associates web site or from other
   electronic services.

2. Create a temporary folder on your hard disk,
   then extract the new files from their .ZIP
   archive.

3. Log on to the NetWare server that hosts the
   NetShield NLM you want to unload, either at
   the server itself, or from elsewhere on your
   network.

4. At the NetWare console prompt, enter the
   following command:

   unload netshld

   The NetShield software begins to shut down.

5. Copy the extracted files from the temporary
   directory to the NetShield directory on your
   NetWare server. If you installed the
   NetShield NetWare server application in its
   default location, copy the files to:

   SYS:MCAFEE\NETSHLD

6. Restart the NetShield NetWare server by
   entering the following command at the
   NetWare console prompt:

   netshld

   The NetShield NetWare application uses the
   new files immediately.


FILES INCLUDED WITH THIS RELEASE

The Engine and DAT file update package includes
the following files, all of which should be
installed into the NetShield NetWare
installation directory on your NetWare server.

   MCSCAN32.NLM         Scanning engine.

   CLEAN.DAT            Virus definition file.
   SCAN.DAT             Virus definition file.
   NAMES.DAT            Virus definition file.

   README.TXT           This file.
   CONTACT.TXT          Contact information.
   LICENSE.TXT          License information.
   SIGNLIC.TXT          3rd party license
                        information.

   VALIDATE.EXE         File checksum utility.
   PACKING.LST          List of file
                        checksums.



TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION

You can test the operation of the software by
running the EICAR Standard AntiVirus Test File
on any computer where you have installed the
software. The EICAR Standard AntiVirus Test
File is a combined effort by anti-virus vendors
throughout the world to implement one standard
by which customers can verify their anti-virus
installations.

To test your installation:

1. Copy the following line into its own file,
   then save the file with the name EICAR.COM.

      X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

   The file size will be 68 or 70 bytes.

2. Start your anti-virus software and allow it
   to scan the directory that contains
   EICAR.COM.

   When your software scans this file, it will
   report finding the EICAR test file.

3. Delete the file when you have finished
   testing your installation to avoid alarming
   unsuspecting users.

   IMPORTANT:
   Please note that this file is NOT A VIRUS.

KNOWN ISSUES

1. Abends on NetWare 5.1 servers with Support
   Pack 3

   Occasionally, NetWare 5.1 servers abend
   after NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 3 is applied.
   The problem in that support pack will be
   addressed in NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 4.

   The abend occurs in the tolower() function
   at LIBC.NLM + 00000464h.

   MOVZX   ECX,byte ptr [EDX-2C4BDF97]=?

   For more details, see the thread "Bugs in
   NKS (NW 5.1+SP3)" in the novell.devsup.nks
   newsgroup at:

      news://developer-forums.novell.com


2. Module MCSCAN32.NLM cannot load

   NetWare 4.11 users might see the following
   error when attempting to load Netshield.

      Error : Loader cannot find public symbol: closedir_510
      Error : Load file referenced undefined public variable.
      Module MCSCAN32.NLM NOT loaded.

   This can be fixed by loading CLIBAUX.NLM
   before the Engine NLM (mcscan32.nlm).

   To do this, add an extra line to
   netshld.ncf:

   1. At the system console, type:
      load edit sys:\system\netshld.ncf

   2. Add the following line before the line
      "load SYS:MCAFEE\NETSHLD\netshld.nlm":
      load clibaux.nlm

   3. Save the file, and close edit.

   4. At the system console, type:
      netshld


3. Some mail clients (such as PINE, Eudora,
   Netscape, and Pegasus Mail) use a file
   structure similar to concatenated MIME as
   their mailbox format. These clients also
   tend to access the files frequently. Some
   McAfee desktop products allow the user to
   enable the scanning of MIME files. Depending
   on the size of the mailbox, on-access
   scanning of these files could take a
   considerable time. Therefore we recommend
   that these files are excluded from on-access
   scanning, if applicable.

   under which you may use the product. Read it
   carefully. If you install the product, you
   agree to the license terms.

2. This README file.

_______________________________________________
WHAT IS THE ENGINE?

The anti-virus scanning engine included with
this package is the component that actually
detects viruses and cleans infected files. The
engine is a self-contained program that you can
"drop in" to each generation of McAfee
anti-virus software to enhance detection and
cleaning capabilities, much like you might
replace parts of - or your entire - car engine.
The rest of the anti-virus software allows you
to direct and manage the detection and cleaning
capabilities built into the engine.


_______________________________________________
WHAT ARE DAT FILES?

Virus definition, or DAT, files contain
up-to-date virus signatures and other
information that the anti-virus products use to
protect your computer against the thousands of
known computer viruses. We release new DAT
files regularly to provide protection against
the hundreds of new viruses that appear each
month. To ensure that your anti-virus software
can protect your system or network against the
latest virus threats, download and install the
latest DAT files.

These are available from the web site:
