OEM Release notes for LANDeskŪ Client Manager Windows 98* patch

This file contains information about the Microsoft Windows 98* patch for LANDeskŪ Client Manager version 1.10.  These notes give the LDCM version that the patch supports and the defects that the patch fixes.

This patch includes fixed product files, a batch file(WIN98.BAT), and utility files(ICOMP.EXE and LDCHOICE.EXE). The product files that are replaced in this patch include:

CIACOMP.DLL 
CIADRV.DLL
OSOPERAT.DLL
OSCOMP.DLL
OIDQUERY.VXD
IAOEMLNG.DLL

All product files are replaced in LDCM versions 3.11 through 3.2x. Only OIDQUERY.VXD is replaced in 3.10.x versions.

In order to install this patch, the patched files, the batch file(WIN98.BAT), and the utility files(ICOMP.EXE , LDCHOICE.EXE, and DELTREE.EXE)  must be copied to a specific place on the image, which is dependant on the version of LDCM.  DELTREE.EXE is not distributed with this patch, but can be found on Windows* machines. It MUST be copied to the same place as the utility files included.

Copy all the files noted for version:

LDCM 3.2x to the binaries\client directory.
LDCM 3.11 through 3.12 to CLIENT folder.
LDCM 3.10.x to the CLIENT folder.

Then execute the WIN98.BAT file, which will automatically update the .z files in your image. After this has finished, you must remove the WIN98.BAT file and deltree.exe from the directory specified above.  If error conditions are reported, first check that enough hard disk space is available to decompress the .z file.  In the case of 3.12.x, as much as 500M of 
free space is required.

Windows 98* patch supports the following LDCM Versions:
LDCM 3.1x , and any version of LDCM 3.2. However, LDCM 3.10.x does not support the changes made to OSOPERAT.DLL, OSCOMP.DLL, IAOEMLNG.DLL, CIACOMP.DLL or CIADRV.DLL. For this version, only the OIDQUERY.VXD is replaced. Therefore, the sound driver information is not reported, and the OS is still reported as Windows 95*.

NOTE: all versions of LDCM 3.3x and above do not require the Windows 98 patch,  as Windows 98 support is built into these products.

The following issues are addressed by this patch:

OS hang/crash after rebooting following  installation of Windows 98*
This issue is fixed by replacing OIDQUERY.VXD

LDCM reports the Windows 98 OS as Windows 95*
This issue is fixed by replacing OSOPERAT.DLL, OSCOMP.DLL, and IAOEMLNG.DLL, except in LDCM 3.10.x, where these DLLs are not replaced.

LDCM does not report sound driver information
This issue is fixed by replacing CIACOMP.DLL and CIADRV.DLL except in LDCM 3.10.x, where these DLLs are not replaced.
