I'm preparing to begin client upgrades from R5.11 to R6.5.1. I want to use 
the Upgrade Notification feature to accomplish this task.

I used the Lotus Notes 6.5.1.msi and created an R651_yymmdd.mst package. 
This package resides on a Novell network share that each user has access 
to. The last step in my packaging specifies this Novell network share for 
the network location. The Setup parm specifies to include both engines 
(win95/95 & nt) and also specifies the windows command line arguments 
"/qb+".

My question is in regard to the Administrator Upgrade Notification panel. 
The Basics tab and Client Versions tab are understandable, but the 
Software Distribution tab leaves me confused and the Admin help doesn't 
offer much.

In the Notes Install Kit Path, I think I want to specify the path to the 
Novell network share that contains the R651_yymmdd.mst. Is that correct?

If so, where do I specify the R651_yymmdd.mst? In the Arguments Option for 
W32 field? There is no help associated with this field and I can't find 
anywhere else that seems logical for specifying the .mst package.

Anyone have any input to offer? 

Thanks in advance.

Happy Friday :)

Regards, Jerry
