Shortcut Misnamed in v 1.3
Version 1.3 of the CD shortcut icon and program group name is wrong in
Windows. It says version 2.0 and should say version 1.3. Fixed in this
version of the CD.
Off CD links point to wrong server (v1.3)
Some of the off CD links were not properly rewritten by the publishing software and continue to point to
the development server and not the internet server. Users who have access
to infoserver.sun.com will still not be able to access the links that
point to infoserver.central.
Windows 3.X support
Support for Windows 3.X has been dropped in this release. Please note
that this requires that when using Windows 95/8 or NT that you have the
TCP/IP protocol stack installed. This is needed by the pseudo proxy
server used by the viewer software to translate URLs into local files
on the CD.
Windows 2000
This CD has not been tested to work on Windows 2000.
Accessing Off-CD Links
When running these CDs on Solaris you may get an error message about
NetScape not being able to find any of the off CD URLs to infoserver.sun.com
. We launch a version of NetScape Navigator for
browsing the CDs. Since we launch our own browser it is not configured with
the proper information. You should go into the Edit-Preferences-Mail & Newsgroups-Identity
dialog to set your email identity.
Also, be aware that some of the off CD links go to restricted access systems that you
may not have the ability to access. To access infoserver.sun.com you need the proper
service provider contract with Sun Enterprise Services.
Adobe Acrobat
When viewing PDF documents on a Windows or NT system you get an error message
after viewing 9 files. The error message will say "The maximum number of files
are already open. No other files can be opened or printed until some are closed."
To work around this problem find the Acrobat Reader program icon on the task bar
and kill it. You can now view PDF files again until you hit the 9 file limit.
