GENERAL INFO
-------------
     You will need to have a License PAK with a release date after the date of
  PMDFSHR.EXE or libpmdf.so to run PMDF.  Note that this may apply to other
  images as well.

     Patches may be obtained from the anonymous FTP account on
  ftp.pmdf.process.com.  Use FTP to connect to the host ftp.pmdf.process.com
  and login as the user anonymous.  Use your e-mail address as the login 
  password.

     Move to the pmdf_621_patches subdirectory:

        ftp> cd pmdf_621_patches

     Patches will be located in platform-specific sub-trees, as follows:

        Platform        Subdirectory
        --------        ------------
        OpenVMS         vms
        Solaris/SPARC   solaris-sparc
        Solaris/x86     solaris-x86
        Tru64           osf
	common unix	unix

     When FTPing images, be sure to FTP them as binary.  Before retrieving
  such an image with the GET command, be sure to put your FTP into binary
  mode with a command such as TYPE IMAGE or TYPE BINARY.



Change history
---------------
8-MAR-2005
  Fixed a problem with PMDF SEND sending text files containing lines longer
  than 1024 characters, even with /ENCODING=QUOTED_PRINTABLE. Note that this
  change requires a PMDFSHR.EXE with an image ident of V6.2-1x3 or higher.
  [OpenVMS only] (D/E 9931)



Installation
------------

OpenVMS [VAX] [ALPHA]

        Copy the SEND.EXE to the PMDF_EXE: directory.  Ensure it has the same
        ownership & security/access as the previous version.

	Then re-install SEND.EXE with the command:

		$ INSTALL REPLACE PMDF_EXE:SEND.EXE

	on all members of the OpenVMS cluster running out of the affected PMDF
	directory tree.

	Make sure to download and install the latest PMDFSHR.EXE as instructed
	for that image.
