ISSUE: 

Fixes:

 1) With the shipping NetWare v4.10 MAP.EXE, the current path of search drives
mapped as root drives is not searched; rather, the root is always searched. For
example, if you

 MAP ROOT S1:=SYS:\PUBLIC

 then

 CD SYS:PUBLIC\UTILS

 the UTILS directory will not be searched. This is a result of the PATH
statement being changed to PATH=Z:. (current directory) instead of PATH=Z:\
(root directory) as was the case in earlier versions of NetWare.

 2) Sparse files are sometimes truncated.

 3) When copying file(s) from a network drive, files which do not have
extensions are not copied.

 4) When copying file(s) from a network drive to a local drive, if the
destination drive ran out of disk space, the source file would be deleted and a
portion file being copied would be left on the destination drive.
