The following are excerps from a TECH ALERT posted by Informix on InfoLink (picked up Nov 11/94) Tim Ward (timward@crl.com) ************************************** * * * * * * * TECH ALERT * * * * * * * ************************************** In previous Tech Alerts regarding the 5.02 Unix Servers and the 4.12 Unix Tools products we discussed problems with those specific releases that required putting a port hold on the products. The new releases of these products are now available. All customers whohave previously ordered 5.02.UC1 UNIX Server products or 4.12.UD1 UNIX Tools products 4.12.UC1 Unix Tools products will be sent a letter offering to replace the products they ordered, free of charge. These letters will be mailed on or before September 2, 1994. The new versions of the products are: 5.02.UC6 UNIX Server products 4.12.UE1 UNIX Tools products For your information, we have also attached the current status of the porting efforts for these releases.
