DOCUMENT:Q100819 24-NOV-1999 [msdos] TITLE :NET.TXT: Updating LAN Manager 1.x Enhanced Networks PRODUCT :Microsoft Disk Operating System PROD/VER:MS-DOS:6.0,6.2,6.21,6.22 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft MS-DOS operating system versions 6.0, 6.2, 6.21, 6.22 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== After following the procedure for updating LAN Manager 1.x Enhanced and 100-percent compatible networks described in the NET.TXT file that is included with the MS-DOS 6.0 and 6.2 Supplemental Kit, you may receive the following error messages at startup: NET 2413 : incorrect MS-DOS version. NET 2413 : incorrect MS-DOS version, error spawning workstation. CAUSE ===== These errors occur because the NETWKSTA.EXE file, which is used to start the workstation, requires an entry in the MS-DOS 6 version table. WORKAROUND ========== To correct this problem, add NETWKSTA.EXE to the Setver version table as MS-DOS 4.01 and ensure that SETVER.EXE is being loaded from the CONFIG.SYS file, as follows: 1. Make sure that SETVER.EXE is being loaded in your CONFIG.SYS file. For example: device=c:\dos\setver.exe 2. Once your system has restarted completely, enter the following at an MS-DOS command prompt: " setver netwksta.exe 4.01" (without the quotation marks) You should receive a message regarding the application that you are adding to the MS-DOS 6.0 version table. This is normal. If the version table was successfully updated, you can reboot your system, and the change will take effect. MORE INFORMATION ================ For more information on using the SETVER command with MS-DOS 6, type "help setver" (without the quotation marks) at the MS-DOS command prompt or query on the following words in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: "setver.exe" (without the quotation marks) and "version" (without the quotation marks) and "table" (without the quotation marks) and "6.0" (without the quotation marks) Additional query words: 6.22 6.00 net 6.20 ====================================================================== Keywords : Technology : kbMSDOSSearch kbMSDOS621 kbMSDOS622 kbMSDOS620 kbMSDOS600 Version : MS-DOS:6.0,6.2,6.21,6.22 ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
