Re: STRHOSTSVR *ALL & Client Acc -- MIDRANGE-L

Thanks Phillip!

Well, yes, CA V3R2M0...  Is that usable on a V3R2 OS/400?

If so, I've got another problem.  I inheirited (sp?) 13 shrink-wrapped Client
Access CDs with a LOT of duplication.  There *must* be a good reason why I
have 6 copies of the "Client Service Pack SF40828 CD" for V3R1M2.  I've got
four copies of the "Windows 3.1 and Windows 95/NT CD-ROM".  I even have one
copy of the "DOS, OS/2, and Windows 3.1 CD-ROM"!

I do have a copy of the CA for Win95/NT Version 4 CD-ROM.  Strangely enough,
though, the CD-ROM itself has on the label "Contains client; Windows 95/NT
5763-XD1 V3R1M2".  So I guess I'm really confused.  The README.TXT file gives
no clues either.

What is item number for the latest version of CA that can run on a V3R2
OS/400?  (I.e., SK3T-nnnn-nn)  What version of OS/400 did it ship with?  And,
if I am unable to find a copy of it around here, how do I get my hands on one
without having to pay anything more than a shipping charge?

Hello Dan,
( see I got it right, too ;-)  )

first of all, you really should update to CA V3R2M0 and install
SF64050 or higher immediately after it, this really makes a lot
things easier, especially when running on NT.
CA ServicePacks can be downloaded at
