NEW FEATURES

-   Includes technology to combat the latest and 
    future threats.

-   Improved detection and cleaning.

-   Support for many more Packed Executable formats 
    in which known malware is often re-packaged 
    for obfuscation purposes.

-   Specific detection and reporting of compressed 
    files.

-   Enhancements to the emergency DAT file (EXTRA.DAT)
    structure allowing a larger DAT file size.

-   Enhancements to enable scanning of non-standard 
    ZIP archives.


_______________________________________________
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

This software installs and runs on a computer
equipped with these versions of NetWare:

-  Version 4.11 with the latest Service Pack.

-  Versions 4.2, 5.0 and 5.1 with McAfee
   Netshield for NetWare 4.5 and 4.6.

-  Versions 6.0 and 6.5 with McAfee Netshield 
   for NetWare 4.6 only.


_______________________________________________
INSTALLATION

1. Download the NetWare .ZIP file from our
   web site or from other electronic services.

2. Create a temporary folder on your hard disk,
   then extract the new files from their .ZIP
   archive.

3. Log on to the NetWare server that hosts the
   NetShield NLM you want to unload, either at
   the server itself, or from elsewhere on your
   network.

4. At the NetWare console prompt, enter the
   following command:

   unload netshld

   The NetShield software begins to shut down.

5. Copy the extracted files from the temporary
   directory to the NetShield directory on your
   NetWare server. If you installed the
   NetShield NetWare server application in its
   default location, copy the files to:

   SYS:MCAFEE\NETSHLD

6. Restart the NetShield NetWare server by
   entering the following command at the
   NetWare console prompt:

   netshld

   The NetShield NetWare application uses the
   new files immediately.


LIST OF FILES

The Engine and DAT file update package includes
the following files, all of which should be
installed into the NetShield NetWare
installation directory on your NetWare server.

   MCSCAN32.NLM         Scanning engine.

   CLEAN.DAT            Virus definition file.
   NAMES.DAT            Virus definition file.
   SCAN.DAT             Virus definition file.

   CONTACT.TXT          Contact information.
   README.TXT           This file.
   LICENSE.TXT          License information.
   SIGNLIC.TXT          Third-party license information.

   PACKING.LST          List of file checksums.
   VALIDATE.EXE         File checksum utility.


REMOVING THE SOFTWARE

We recommend that you do not remove our files because
your server will not be protected. However, in order 
to update an engine, follow these steps:

1. Type  unload netshld  at the server console.

2. From a client machine, map a drive to SYS: drive 
   of the NetWare server.

3. Change directory to the <drive>:\mcafee\netshld 
   directory (or wherever NetShield was installed). 

4. Copy the old mcscan32.nlm and DAT files to another 
   directory.
   
5. Copy the new mcscan32.nlm and DAT files into 
   <drive>: \mcafee\netshld directory.
 
6. Type  load netshld  at the server console.


_____________________________________________________
KNOWN ISSUES

1. Abends on NetWare 5.1 servers with Support
   Pack 3

   Occasionally, NetWare 5.1 servers abend
   after NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 3 is applied.
   The problem in that support pack will be
   addressed in NetWare 5.1 Support Pack 4.

   The abend occurs in the tolower() function
   at LIBC.NLM + 00000464h.

   MOVZX   ECX,byte ptr [EDX-2C4BDF97]=?

   For more details, see the thread "Bugs in
   NKS (NW 5.1+SP3)" in the novell.devsup.nks
   newsgroup at:

      news://developer-forums.novell.com


2. Module MCSCAN32.NLM cannot load

   NetWare 4.11 users might see the following
   error when attempting to load Netshield.

      Error : Loader cannot find public symbol: closedir_510
      Error : Load file referenced undefined public variable.
      Module MCSCAN32.NLM NOT loaded.

   This can be fixed by loading CLIBAUX.NLM
   before the Engine NLM (mcscan32.nlm).

   To do this, add an extra line to
   netshld.ncf:

   1. At the system console, type:
      load edit sys:\system\netshld.ncf

   2. Add the following line before the line
      "load SYS:MCAFEE\NETSHLD\netshld.nlm":
      load clibaux.nlm

   3. Save the file, and close edit.

   4. At the system console, type:
      netshld


3. Some mail clients (such as PINE, Eudora,
   Netscape, and Pegasus Mail) use a file
   structure similar to concatenated MIME as
   their mailbox format. These clients also
   tend to access the files frequently. Some
   McAfee desktop products allow the user to
   enable the scanning of MIME files. Depending
   on the size of the mailbox, on-access
   scanning of these files could take a
   considerable time. Therefore we recommend
   that these files are excluded from on-access
   scanning, if applicable.

__________________________________________________________
ENGINE END-OF-LIFE (EOL) PROGRAM

Important information from AVERT and the McAfee
Engine Development Team:

   Is your engine up-to-date? - Anti-virus is only
   as good as its last update!

-  Updating your DAT files regularly is essential
   and a MUST!

-  Updating your engine is just as important and a
   MUST.

-  An old engine WILL NOT catch some of today’s
   threats.

-  Sometimes architectural changes to the way that
   the DAT files and virus-scanning engine work
   together make it critical for you to update your
   engine.

AVERT says it makes sense to have as part of your
Security Policy Program, an Engine Update process to
take advantage of the latest technology and stay
protected!


THE PROBLEM

Between 250 and 400 new detections are added to the
DAT files monthly by AVERT. If you are not
up-to-date, you are vulnerable to any one of them
that gets a foothold in the field (also known as "in
the wild").

McAfee AVERT(TM) releases regular DAT files,
ensuring that full protection is added to all McAfee
products. The DAT files contain the information
required to detect and remove threats - what to look
for and where to look for it.

However, today’s threats are evolving almost on a
daily basis. Software providers continue to make
changes to operating systems and applications that
can change the way a program acts or works, and a
virus-scanning program may not understand the
changes.


THE SOLUTION

Taking this into account, McAfee regularly
updates its virus-scanning engine used by ALL McAfee
virus-detection and removal products. The
engine understands all the different structures in
which a virus could lurk - EXE files, Microsoft
Office files, Linux files, and so on. Occasionally
these changes require us to make significant
architectural changes to the engine as well as the
DAT files.

AVERT strongly recommends that users of ALL McAfee
anti-virus products update the engines in the 
products they have deployed as part of a
sound security best-practices program.

To check your engine version, right-click the McAfee
shield in the system tray, select "About" and look
at the "Scan engine" version number. If you need to
update, you should update your scan engine
immediately from our download site.


THE ENGINE END-OF-LIFE PROGRAM

Because of the evolving malicious code threat, users
should update their engines as soon as possible upon
the release of McAfee’s latest scanning technology.

When a new engine is released, the existing engine
will begin its countdown to its end of life, and
will therefore no longer be supported by McAfee.

and a full list of supported engines and products 
can be found at:
