          Added features and corrected problems in version 3.06:
          =============================================================

          1. Extended SMB
             The CD-ROM server now handles the Extended SMB dialect which
             makes browsing with NT clients (3.51 and 4.0) possible.

          2. Hiding volumes in SMB
             The Volumes and Config folders will be hidden to all clients
             when the ShowPseudoShares in set to No. The folders can still
             be reach by manual mapping.

          3. Corrected problems with disconnecting NBT clients
             Disconnect problems with SMB over NetBIOS/TCP/IP have been
             solved.

          4. NetWare frame type autodetection
             The autodetection of network numbers associated with frame
             types could cause the CD-ROM server to take a network
             number from another segment.
             This problem has been corrected and it is also possible to
             explicitly set the network number and thus bypass the
             autodetection completely. The number can be set for each frame
             type individually in the config.ini file.

          5. NetWare Client32 for WinNT and Win3.11
             Using these new clients, you could not run or read specific
             files, such as .exe or .ini files, from the CD-ROM server.
             This is now possible.

          6. NetWare wildcard search with Client32
             Some combinations of wildcards (for instance, searching for
             files with no extensions using wildcards such as afile* or
             afile.*) did not work, that is no such files were found even if
             they did exist. This has now been remedied.

          7. Authentication server in NetWare
             A bug that caused the CD-ROM server to unnecessarily occupy
             multiple connections on its authentication server has been
             fixed.

          8. Problems with Novell client 32 for NT
             The Novell Client 32 for NT would sometimes hang in an infinite
             loop when using burst mode to read files that had a length that
             was not an even multiple of four bytes. This has now been
             fixed.

          9. Wrong file sizes (all protocols)
             When you listed files in non-CD directories (such as config and
             volumes) for the first time, they would have a file size of
             zero bytes. They are now always listed with correct file sizes.

          10. New structure in Volumes folder
             The txt files in the Volumes folder have been divided into two
             different sub-folders; Server and Cdrom. Please note that the
             files existing in the Volumes folder will not automatically be
             moved to the new folders.

          11. Nakamichi MBR 7 support
             The AXIS 850/851 now also support the MBR 7 changer from
             Nakamichi. The changer also exists with other brand names.

          12. Listing file with Win 3.11 client
             If "dir <filename.ext>" is issued the AXIS 850/851 will always
             return "File does not exist". All "dir" commands with wildcards
             work properly though.

          13. Jukebox time lock
             A parameter that enables you to set the minimum time to lock a 
             CD in the drive of a CD changer. This prevents the changer form
             constantly swapping CDs when clients are accessing different CDs. The 
             lock time is set by the JukeBoxLockTime parameter. The recommended
             setting is in the same region as time the changer takes to swap CD's, i.e.
             2-10 seconds.

Note that a factory default is performed after upgrading. IP address and everything else 
is resetted. Please save or print out the CONFIG.INI file and the access 
right files before upgrading.
