DESCRIPTION:  Unpacks the files needed to install the Compaq Foundation Agents
              for NetWare(Japanese).

Enhancements/Fixes:
Fixed a potential security issue in the web-enabled portion of the 
Compaq Management Agents for NetWare. There is a buffer overflow 
problem when a large value HTTP request is passed in the Compaq 
Management Agents. It could result in a modification of the host 
server's stack. Depending on how the stack was modified, the server 
could potentially abend. 

Fixed a potential issue introduced by Compaq SoftPaq SP16777, which
was recently posted on the Compaq website, and which could significantly 
affect the web-enabled Compaq management software (Compaq HTTP server) 
during startup. In rare occasions when a system has been running for a 
couple of days,  the cookie.dat file generates a cookie with a 0 sequence 
number.  This sequence number can cause the HTTP Server to go through an 
incorrect code path, which can significantly impact the HTTP Server 
during startup.   

Add support Japanese/English to Login applet.

This upgrade affects the web component of the affected products for 
the following versions: 

Compaq Foundation Agents - NetWare,  versions 4.23b to 4.90



HOW TO USE:

Instructions on how to use this SoftPAQ to install Agents onto a server
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

	This file contains the instructions on how to install the Compaq 
Foundation Agents for NetWare(Japanese) onto a NetWare server.  The SoftPAQ 
process has left a self-extracting executable file (NWFD490B.EXE)and this 
file (Sp16777.txt) in a subdirectory.  The goal will be for the user to 
run the self-extracting executable on a client machine and install to any 
target server(s) which require the updated agents.  The target server will 
temporarily contain a subdirectory which will be used to house the files used 
by the Compaq Management Agent Installation NLM (CPQAGIN.NLM).  The agent
installation NLM will be run and will copy the files to the proper places
and will configure the agents.  The final step will be to delete the
temporary subdirectory on the target server.

     The following steps provide more detailed information.


Step 1:  Run the NWFD490B.EXE file to copy files to the Target Server.

	Copy this SP16777.TXT and the NWFD490B.EXE files to a client machine
which has access to the network which contains the target NetWare server
and then map a drive to the server.  Then run the NWFD490B.EXE file on that
client machine so it installs the necessary files to the target server. 
Note: When you run the NWFD490B.EXE file, it will contain the default path
which should be used to land the files on the server, but you will need
to provide the proper drive letter of the target server.


Step 2: Run the installation NLM (CPQAGIN.NLM) on the target server.

	Walk over to the target server and run the Compaq Management
Agent Installation NLM in order to install and configure the new Agents.
To do this, type:
      LOAD SYS:\AGENTS\NETWARE\JPN\COMPAQ\CQMGHOST\CPQAGIN
and hit Enter.

	Next select the option to 'Copy New NetWare Agents to SYS:SYSTEM".
This will copy the files from the temporary subdirectory to the proper
locations.  Once the file copies are complete, follow the instructions
to configure the agents. Once the installation steps are complete, CPQAGIN 
will automatically start the agents.  


Step 3:  Verify that the Agents work.

	Use Compaq Insight Manager to verify that the target server can be
seen and that the agents are providing data.


Step 4:  Delete the temporary subdirectory on the target server.

	If desired, the temporary directory on the target server which was used 
to stage the files can be deleted.  Go to a client machine and delete the
\AGENTS folder from the target server.
