HOW TO USE:

 1. Download the SoftPaq file onto a DOS / Windows PC. Change to the
    directory in which the file was placed.  The file that is downloaded
    is an executable with a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

 2. From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file.
    Change to the directory that contains the expanded files
    and launch Setup.exe. This will create a file called cpmagent. Transfer
    cpmagent to the target Unix Server.

 3. Stop the cpmagent process on the target Unix server using the following
    procedure:

    Login as root. From a console prompt:
    #ps  - ef    |  grep cpmagent
    This will give us the process id for cpmagent, represented here as x
    #kill ?9 x
    That kills the process.

    copy the original cpmagent file to /usr/cpm/cpmagent.original
    
    copy the new cpmagent file to the target Unix server.This file should be
    placed in the subdirectory /usr/cpm.

    Restart cpmagent :
    #/usr/cpm/cpmagent &
