GW6.5 SP4 overlay CD.
Hi experts,
I would like to install GW6.5 with SP4 in ONE go on a netware server.Is there a way i can make / download the overlay CD with SP4 for GW.I could not find one.I have found that sometimes there are problems if you install SP (improperly), you have to verify that the files are not RO etc,etc.
I found the following just now in Novell GW Support Forum and hope it will solve my problem:
( Extract the SP4 to your harddrive, run the setup.exe in the root until it asks for the original CD. After you supplied the original, exit the setup and burn back the whole SP4 directory to a CD. Done.)
I think it will work.Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help in advance.

I copied GW and GWsp4 on different directories on my XP Wks.
I started install from GWsp4\Setup.exe.
It asked me for SDD ---> I pointed it to C:\GW.
I selected the copy files option during install.--->clicked finish afterwards.
Now i can install a new GW system with SP4 from c:\GWsp4. ( I have tried it also)
A similar solution is available at Novell Groupwise Install/Upgd forum also.( It is for GW6 sp3, but it is working fine for Gw6.5 SP4 also)
Thanks a lot
