                   XRouter File Modification History
                   =================================


This file records significant changes to various configuration and document
files, to help you keep your own copies up to date.

For some files, such as XROUTER.CFG it will be more convenient for you to
cut the relevant sections out of the new files and paste them into your
existing setup, rather than to re-enter all your details into the new file.

If you are maintaining a paper copy of XROUTER.TXT, I suggest that you use
a red pen to make minor changes, or just reprint the modified pages unless
the changes are major.  When your pages are more red than black, it's time
to waste more trees...

New or updated MAN files may be simply copied to your MAN directory.

If you have customised your HELP files, you may need to be careful before
updating them.

Changes to the following files are recorded below:

	ACCESS.SYS
        DOMAIN.SYS
	IGATE.CFG
        IPROUTE.SYS
	MAN Files
	XROUTER.CFG
