Dear SCO Customer,

This package contains the UnixWare 7.1.1 Maintenance Pack 4a.  This Maintenance
Pack contains important fixes to your UnixWare 7.1.1 system and should be
applied at your next maintenance period.  

This Maintenance Pack is the Minimum Recommended Patch for UnixWare 7.1.1 
and should be applied prior to submitting problem reports to SCO Support.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I. Software Notes and Recommendations

1. The UnixWare 7 Maintenance Pack 4a package (uw711mp4) should only be
   installed on:

             UnixWare 7.1.1        

2. If you are performing an in-place upgrade from UnixWare 7.1.0 to 
   UnixWare 7.1.1, make sure to reboot the system after applying the 
   update711 package before applying this Maintenance Pack.  
   (The package update711 is on the second CD included in the media kit) 

3  uw711mp4 is a set and contains the following packages:

      uw711m4    Maintenance Pack 4 package
      libc       Runtime C Library package, version 7.1.1
      libthread  Runtime Thread Library package, version 7.1.1

   These packages are each separately installable and removable.  We recommend
   installing the entire set.

4. This Maintenance Pack does not contain the following Feature Supplements 
   for 7.1.1:

             udifs   - Universal Driver Interface Feature Supplement
             udkfs   - UnixWare/OpenServer Development Feature Supplement
             vm16fs  - DCAP Feature Supplement

   Should you choose to install one or more of these supplements, they must 
   be installed prior to installing the Maintenance Pack.

5. This Maintenance Pack completely supersedes prior UnixWare 7.1.1 Maintenance
   Packs (uw711m1, uw711m2, and uw711m3).  The prior Maintenance Packs do not
   need to be removed prior to installing uw711mp4.  uw711mp4 may also be
   installed on top of the older Maintenance Set (set71101), although set71101
   is not a prerequisite to install uw711m4.

   This Maintenance Pack does not contain all of the man pages and docs bundled
   with vm16fs.  Specifically, it includes the kcrash and vm16plus package, but
   not the vm16doc package.

6. uw711mp4 updates sendmail to version 8.12.9 + security fixes from
   8.12.10. However, if you previously added a version of sendmail
   provided by a vendor other than The SCO Group, then uw713mp4 will not
   update that version.

   After installing uw713mp4, running sendmail commands such as the
   newalias command may display the following error message:

   Warning: .cf file is out of date: sendmail 8.12.9 supports
   version 10, .cf file is version 9

   Mail will continue to function. However none of the new features,
   implemented in the configuration file, will be available unless you
   edit this file manually. See http://sendmail.org for further detail.

   Only sendmail has been updated. SCOadmin has not been updated. The old
   configuration file has been left in place to allow continued use of
   the SCOadmin interface.

   To avoid the warning message edit /etc/sendmail.cf and change the
   config file format entry (the first non comment line) from "V9" to
   "V10". Note that once you edit sendmail.cf manually you will no longer
    be able to use SCOadmin to manage sendmail.

7. This Maintenance Pack obsoletes the old Maintenance set71101.

8. This Maintenance Pack includes the DDI8 st01 driver from DCAP FS and 
   obsoletes ptf7610.

9. For a complete listing of the PTFs superseded by this version of the 
   Maintenance Pack see the errata file.  You can install the Maintenance 
   Pack without removing the PTFs listed.  The installation of the 
   Maintenance Pack will lock down these PTFs and they will no longer be 
   individually removable.

10. For a list of issues that this Maintenance Pack addresses, please 
    view the errata file.

11. If you have questions regarding this supplement, or the product on 
    which it is installed, please contact your software supplier or 
    Technical Support representative.

II. Installation Instructions

1. Download the Maintenance Pack file (uw711mp4a.image) to your server from

		ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/unixware7/uw711pk

2. Uncompress the file:

             $ uncompress *

3. As root, add the package to your system using these commands:

             $ su -
             Password: <type your root password>
             # pkgadd -d  /<dir_name>/uw711mp4a.image

4. Reboot the system after installing this package.

             # shutdown -g0

5. It is strongly recommended to spool the update711 package and uw711mp4
   set on to your system so that the uw711mp4 scripts will automatically
   update the update711 and/or uw711m4 package when it detects that an
   older package from the UW7.1.1 media kit has been installed on top of
   uw711mp4.
   
   Follow these steps:

   Spool uw711mp4 pkg:

             # pkgadd -s /var/spool/pkg -d /<dir_name>/uw711mp4a.image all

   Spool update711:

             Insert the UnixWare 7.1.1 CD 2 in the CD-ROM drive.

             # pkgadd -s /var/spool/pkg -d cdrom1 update711 all

----------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Removal Instructions

To remove the Maintenance pack use the commands:

             # pkgrm uw711mp4
             # shutdown -g0
