7.3 Upgrading to Novell SecureLogin 6.1 from Novell SecureLogin 3.5.x or 3.0.x

To upgrade entirely to Novell SecureLogin 6.1, you must uninstall all versions from 3.0.x to 3.5.x.

NOTE:If you are using the Mozilla* Firefox* browser, you might encounter problems when upgrading Novell SecureLogin 6.x with Firefox 1.0.x or earlier.

We recommended that you install or upgrade to Novell SecureLogin by using Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later. With this, the SLoMoz.xpi extension is automatically installed and configured.

If a user wants to continue using Mozilla Firefox 1.0.x or earlier, then the SLoMoz.xpi extension installed with Novell SecureLogin must be uninstalled and the SLoMoz.xpi extension file of the Novell SecureLogin installer package must be re-installed.

7.3.1 Restriction on Upgrades

The only restriction that Novell SecureLogin 6 upgrade applies is for Hot Desk or mobile users. When upgrading users who log in to multiple workstations, conflicts occur if the user accesses workstations that are upgraded and those that are not upgraded.

After the user logs in to a workstation that is upgraded, the user data is updated and they cannot subsequently use Novell SecureLogin on a workstation still running the old version.

To avoid this situation and assure a smooth transition, use a migration plan. For more information on a migration plan, see Section 7.9, Developing a Migration Plan.

NOTE:When upgrading Novell SecureLogin from a previous version, make sure you have the same version running on the administrative workstation. For example, if you have Novell SecureLogin 6.1 installed on your administration workstation, you cannot administer data in the 3.0 version mode.
