INSTALLING NETWARE SERVICE PACKS (not an overlay CD)

1.  Download the service pack, which will be a self-expanding EXE
2.  Place the EXE into a temporary folder
3.  expand the EXE by double-clicking it, and answering YES
    (continue with expansion).

    NOTE: in some rare cases, you actually have to perform
          the expansion in a DOS window
         
          START
            RUN
              CMD
          cd to the directory containing the EXE
          invoke the EXE
          Answer YES, you want to continue unpacking

4.  (Preferably) copy all of the unpacked Folders and files
     onto a CD that you are burning.
5.  Place this CD in the CDROM drive of the Netware system
    that you want updated.
6.  Ensure that you know what the name of the mounted CD is:
      In my case, I named the CD "NW65SP2" - I noticed
      that NetWare 6.5 w/sp 1.1 calls my drive: "CD_0000",
      if there is no name on the CD, otherwise, the mounted
      CD is called by the name of the CD.

7.  NWCONFIG (from a NetWare Server Console window)
       Product Options
          Install aProduct Not Listed
             F3 (to specify a different path)
                NW65SP2:\  
                   (this location must contain an IPS file)

    You will have to log in as the admin - which means the
    admin qaulified by the Context name. In my case, this
    is "admin.fl" - some people use ".admin.fl", then the
    password.
