SYMPTOMS
You may encounter a

path not found

or

file not found

error message if you use the MS-DOS Prompt utility in Microsoft Windows 3.0 to try to type a filename or copy a file on a network drive.

CAUSE
This problem can be caused by using XMSNETx.EXE version 3.01 revision A.

RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, obtain the 3.02 version of the workstation update, create a new IPX.COM, and use the 3.02 version of XMSNETx.EXE.

To find out what revision of the shell is running, type

"NVER" after logging on to the network; or on the boot disk, go to the directory where the XMSNETx.EXE is located and type

"XMSNETx i" where x is 3 or 4, depending on what version of MS-DOS is being used.

Temporary Workaround
Replace the XMSNETx.EXE with NETx.COM (version 3.01) until the upgraded components can be obtained.
