Sorry.  I shoul have made it clear I was talking about UNIX.
NT is a COMPLETELY different product and there is no way for us to ship a
maintenance upgrade on NT.  Every  upgrade there is a new release, a
complete product by itself.  So to go from 5.1 to 6.0.2 on NT is a one-step
migration.

UNIX is bigger and more complicated. There you must migrate to 6.0 first
and then apply 6.0.2  because the 6.0.2  release is a patch not a product.

James,

I did a brand new installation on NT2000 (SP1) with the 6.0.2 CD-ROM and it
works.

Are you telling me it shouldn't (or am I missing something)?

Alan.

6.0.2 is not a new version of NetView.  It is a maintenance release which
must be installed on top of 6.0.
So you must migrate to 6.0, then apply 6.0.2.
All your customization will be preserved if you follow the instructions.
You use the sersetup menu to back up all NetView data first, then you
de-install 5.1, then you install 6.0 as a Migration.

To upgrade from NetView 5.1 to 6.0.2, is it necessary to first upgrade to
NetView 6.0 and then to 6.02?  Or is it possible to upgrade straight to
6.0.2?
Also, will a custom database and maps be upgraded automatically or will
they have to be rebuilt?
