Environment

Novell eDirectory 8.7.3.10 for NetWare 6.5

Situation

Remote install of SP10 on a NetWare 6.5 sp7 eDirectory 8.7.3.9 server.
The source server (server with the support pack files) can be NetWare 6.5 sp6 or sp7.

The target server (server installing the support pack on) can be NetWare 6.5 sp6 or sp7.

The install starts by copying 4 files:
icmd.nlm
icmd.msg
isdos.nlm
appendlog.nlm

While copying the appendlog.nlm it fails with

"File appendlog.nlm was not found. (nwconfig-6-233)"





Resolution

Current work around is to copy the appendlog.nlm to the sys:system\dstmp directory on the target server then continue to install the patch.
