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_65_patches subdirectory:

        ftp> cd pmdf_65_patches

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

        Platform        Subdirectory
        --------        ------------
        OpenVMS         vms
	Linux		linux
        Solaris/SPARC   solaris-sparc
        Solaris/x86     solaris-x86
        Tru64           osf
	Windows		windows

     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-DEC-2010 (ident V6.5-x5)
  Added two enhancements to the migrate utility to be more robust and deal with
  communication problems. The "-recover" option has been added to tell migrate
  to reconnect to a remote IMAP server if it gets a communication failure. The
  "-fromrecon" and "-torecon" options have been added to tell migrate to
  periodically disconnect and reconnect to the source and destination IMAP
  servers (respectively). The "-fromrecon" and "-torecon" options take a
  parameter which is the number of messages to send between reconnecting.

        Copy the image to the /pmdf/bin directory and issue the following 
	commands:
