This version should be reported by ASTCP.EXE upon loading. If LANtastic for TCP/IP v1.0 is in use, it is recommended to upgrade the version to 1.1 before proceeding. This upgrade is freely available from Artisoft's BBS and ftp site as the files TCP1.EXE and TCP2.EXE. Once these patches have been applied, ASTCP.EXE should report upon loading that it is version 2.0. 2) Make a backup of the files listed above using either the COPY or REN commands. 3) Copy all files from this patch into the directory where all LANtastic for TCP/IP files are located. If LANtastic for TCP/IP has been installed as a centralized-management server; it should only be necessary to copy these files to the central machine. Otherwise, it will be necessary to replace these files on the individual workstations. 4) Reboot workstation(s) that require the drivers to be loaded.
