 Added features in version 6.15
 ==============================

 The installation files, e.g axinstall for UNIX, can no longer be  
 uploaded through the ftp-server in the print server.
 
 TCP/IP silent startup is added in this release, connections to the
 print server might not be possible during the time, typically 
 45-60 seconds, the boot protocols require for startup.

 No ping during boot functionality is added, during the boot-
 procedure the print server will not respond to the PING (ICMP ECHO)
 command.
   
 Ip setting via SLP is added. This is in order to support the use of 
 AXIS IP Jumpstarter to manage this print server.

 This release allows the network speed to be configured manually. 
 A choice between  10 Mbit, 100 Mbit half duplex or auto sensing.

 The Netware Directory parameter, PSERVER_NDS, is now split into 3 
 separate parameters, one for the tree name, one for the files server 
 and one for the distinguished name used in NDS.

 The parallel ports can now be used in an additional mode, HINOACK.

 If required the parallel ports can be manually configured to be
 uni-directional. The bi-directional functionality is turned off.

 An additional timeout parameter is added that determines how long to 
 wait for data from the printer after a print job is finished.  
 
 Corrected problems in version 6.15
 ==================================

 A correction is added for IPX routers that use "errornous" src address 
 in the replies from the server.

 A problem with stability during high volume reverse telnet printing is 
 corrected.

 A few memory leaks regarding printer status management is corrected.

 The beaviour of the DHCP client is corrected to comply with RFC 2131.
 The print server now uses 0.0.0.0 as the source address for dhcp-broadcasts.

 The behaviour of the paralell port in non-ecp mode is corrected.


 Known problems in version 6.15
 ==============================

 Support for Checksums in Netware is not implemented.
