SYMPTOM:

These updated files include nlms which were developed and tested for NetWare
4.11, and are now made available for use with earlier versions of NetWare.
 Among other issues, they will fix issues when authenticating in backup
software while using languages other than English. 
 Other minor issues were also fixed in these updated nlms.  Some of these
issues are outlined in the Solutions section of this document.

SOLUTION: 

Resolved problems -

 All NetWare file system TSAs -
       -Added code to restore EAs on volumes.  They were backed up but not
restored.
 -In BackupTrustees check for error code 0x9C and 0xFE both indicating no more
trustees.  0x9C is the old return value used since 3.11, 0xFE is new.

 TSA311 -
       -DOS TSA cannot reattach to server if DOS workstation is not shutdown
cleanly.  Resolved race condition between establish new connection and clear
abandoned connection.

 -Would not restore MAC name space information to all volumes.Replaced a CLIB
call "GetNameSpaceName" because it's return code was inconsistant on some
volumes on NetWare 3.11.
 -Replaced link-time import of symbol "DOSValidCharBitMap" with run-time import
because sysbol is not defined in NetWare 3.11.

 WSMAN -
       -DOS TSA cannot reattach to server if DOS workstation is not shutdown
cleanly.  Resolved race condition between establish new connection and clear
abandoned connection.

 TSA312.NLM -
      -Corrects a problem when using Arcserve where no connection can be
established  between the host and destination servers.
        
 TSANDS.NLM -
       -Code has been added to free resources allocated by the previouscheckin. 
An alloc was added to the function BuildResourceList andthe corresponding free
was not added to ReleaseTargetService.
 -Also when Engines call TSANDS for the "ERROR LOG" and "SKIPPED DATA SETS"
 files error were generated since then names were translated and should not
have been.  This has been fixed by adding literal strings for each into
tsands.nlm.
