| File area # 38 .. VX_Net Release 3.14 Files |
+----------------------------------------------------------------+
The files below make the new VX_Net release 3.14.
The four main .EXE files are self unpacking files that should be run from
the hard disk of a system onto blank HD formatted floppies... ie, if the .EXE
files were on drive C: and a blank formatted High Density diskette is in Drive
A:, you would do the following....
1) Change to drive A: (A: {return})
2) run the .EXE from drive C: (C:VX314_1 -D {return})
Note that the -D switch is needed when unpacking these files.
You should ensure that you have 6 blank High Density floppies, formatted with
no system tracks and no volume label. You should also have a copy of the
Combined DOS pack (also available below).
NOTE: Before installing the upgrade, we would advise that a full system
backup is taken and verified for data integrety. We would also recommend that
if possible a test installation is carried out before upgrading a live site,
so that you can familiarise yourself with the changes in the new installation
routine (as there are quite a few).
A '*' indicates that the file is new since your last log-on.
