             This field helps MailMan determine, after a fatal error,
             whether to start the transmission process at script 1,
             try 1, or to start elsewhere.

 fixes and features:
===========================================================================
 *** You MUST install Kernel patch XU*8*24 before installing this patch ***

 This patch should be installed after hours, when there is minimum users on
 the system.  You should put the XMUSER Option out of order.

 MSM Sites: The routine XMRTCP must be moved to your NT machine and then
 reboot MSM on the NT machine.  This will restart the TCP/IP poller.
===========================================================================


INSTALLATION:
  1.  These routines are usually mapped on systems that allow mapping,
      so you will need to disable mapping for the effected routines.
  2.  Use the 'INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE' option on the PackMan menu. This
      option will load the KIDS package onto your system.
  3.  The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global on your
      system. You now need to use KIDS to install the Transport global.
  4.  On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use the following
      options:
         Verify Checksums in Transport Global
-Sites getting errors with TCP/IP mail in ^XMC1A. Nois NCH-0696-41098,
         Print Transport Global
         Compare Transport Global to Current System
         Backup a Transport Global
         Install Package(s)
  5.  MSM Sites - Answer YES to the question 'Want to MOVE routines to
      other CPUs?'. Enter the names of your Compute and Print server(s).
  6.  AXP Sites, after patch has installed, rebuild your map set.
