Re: Op's console versus W2K SP4

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

How many people check the archives before putting on a service pack?  I 
guess I'll be one now.

Folks, that was Operations Console.  Do NOT confuse that with Operations 
Navigator.  SP4 doesn't seem to affect that. 

I tried searching for SP4 and got 23 hits that did not apply.  I tried 
searching for service pack 4 and got 1096 hits of which the first page was 
from 1998.  I'd hate to have to search for "service pack 4" and each 
subcomponent of iSeries Access.

Archives baby, the ARCHIVES.  I posted this issue to the list a Month ago!

Contact me off line if you still need the patch. One of my customers 
tripped on this some time ago.
