SYMPTOMS
If you run Microsoft Windows 3.0 in enhanced mode, you may experience problems printing and/or problems running the MS-DOS Prompt when you use Brightworks Development Site Lock 3.1 with a Novell network. Symptoms include the following:

 When you try to print from Windows in enhanced mode, Windows may not print or may lock up while trying to print.  When you run the MS-DOS Prompt full-screen from Windows in enhanced mode, the following error message may appear:

APPLICATION HAS VIOLATED SYSTEM INTEGRITY



Printing
Brightworks Development suggests the following workaround:


 * 1) Run Control Panel, select Printers and choose Configure.
 * 2) Change the printer port to LPT1.OS2.
 * 3) Choose OK twice and exit the Control Panel.

NOTE: When you print with the Site Lock 3.1 utility, the LPTx.OS2 workaround/testing port is used. As a result, printouts may not be reliable when you print graphics to non-PostScript printers.

Running the MS-DOS Prompt
To correct problems when you run MS-DOS Prompt, Brightworks Development suggests that you do the following:


 * 1) Use the PIF Editor to set up a PIF file for COMMAND.COM, as follows:


 * 1) * Under Display Usage, select Full Screen, and under Execution, select Exclusive.

-or-
 * 1) * Under Display Usage, select Windowed, and under Execution, select Background.
 * 2) Contact Novell to obtain the latest version of the file VNETWARE.386. This file is also available on CompuServe in the Novell forum.
