Troubleshooting  
Appendix A  
When  
I
click the Storage Link’s icon in Network  
Appendix A:  
Neighborhood, I’m prompted for a password.  
Troubleshooting  
This can happen in the following situations:  
Your Windows Logon name is recognized by the  
Storage Link, but your Logon password is not. Simply  
enter your password, or make your Windows password  
the same as the Storage Link’s password.  
The Storage Link Utility cannot detect the Storage Link.  
Check that the Storage Linkis properly installed, that  
the LAN connections are secure, and that the Storage  
Link is powered ON.  
Your Windows Logon name is not recognized by the  
Storage Link, defaulting you to guest access rights.  
If you are not the Network Administrator, ask your  
Administrator to create a user name for you. (Use the  
same name as your Logon name.)  
If you are using a router, make sure that your PC and  
the Storage Link are on the same network segment.  
Make sure that your PC has the TCP/IP network  
protocol installed. (See Appendix C: Windows Help for  
more information.)  
You do not have access permission for this share.  
If you are not the Network Administrator, ask your  
Administrator to grant you access.  
The Storage Link is configured, but I can’t find it in  
Network Neighborhood.  
WEB: If your questions are not addressed here,  
refer to the Linksys website, www.linksys.com  
Go to the Find function in the Start menu. Choose  
Computer, then enter the Storage Link’s name. In  
Windows 2000, go to Files and Folders and use the  
“Search for a Computeroption.  
If this doesn’t work, choose the Network option of the  
ControlPaneltocheckthataTCP/IPprotocolisinstalled.  
If it isn’t installed, use Add - Protocol - Microsoft - TCP/  
IP to install it. In Windows 2000, click Install, not Add.  
Check the network bindings. First, make sure that the  
TCP/IP protocol is bound to your network card (NIC).  
Then, select your network card in the Control Panel,  
click Properties, and choose the Bindings tab. If TCP/IP  
is not bound (checked), check it.  
Make sure that the TCP/IP -> network card entry is  
bound to the Client for Microsoft Networks service.  
Select the TCP/IP entry for your network Card, click  
Properties, and then choose the Bindings tab. If Client  
for Microsoft Networks is not bound (checked), check  
it.  
If you don’t have a router, make sure that your IP  
Address is compatible with the Storage Link’s IP  
Address. This means it needs to be in the same address  
range (e.g. 192.168.1.3 to 192.168.1.254) and using the  
same Subnet Mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0)  
If you do have a router, check that your Gateway IP  
Address is set correctly. Ask your LAN administrator for  
the correct value.  
If you have changed the name of the Storage Link,  
change the name back to the default name.

Appendix B:  
If you press ESC, or click Cancel, no network resources  
will be available. When you log on, you need to use a valid  
User Name and Password.  
Using the Storage Links  
Storage  
If the Network Storage Link Administrator has defined  
users on the Network Storage Link, use the User Name  
and password they supply.  
Overview  
Supported versions of Windows are:  
If you use a User Name and password which is not  
recognized by the Network Storage Link, you can still use  
it, with guest access rights. By default, this allows read/  
write access to the “public” share, but the Administrator  
can set the guest access rights as they wish.  
Windows 95/98/ME or later  
Windows 2000, NT 4.0  
Windows XP  
The following items may need to be checked or  
configured:  
Storing Files  
To store files on the Storage Link, you shouldMapa drive  
letter to each folder on the Storage Link folder you wish  
to access. The “Network Drive” will then be available to all  
Windows programs. The procedure is as follows:  
TCP/IP protocol

Software License Agreement  
Appendix F  
GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your  
freedom to share and change free software–to make sure  
the software is free for all its users. This General Public  
License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s  
software and to any other program whose authors  
commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation  
software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public  
License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND  
MODIFICATION  
0. This License applies to any program or other work  
which contains a notice placed by the copyright  
holder saying it may be distributed under the terms  
of this General Public License. The “Program, below,  
refers to any such program or work, and a “work  
based on the Program” means either the Program  
or any derivative work under copyright law: that is  
to say, a work containing the Program or a portion  
of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/  
or translated into another language. (Hereinafter,  
translation is included without limitation in the term  
“modification.) Each licensee is addressed as “you.  
When we speak of free software, we are referring to  
freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are  
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to  
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this  
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can  
get it if you want it, that you can change the software or  
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know  
you can do these things.  
Activities other than copying, distribution and  
modification are not covered by this License; they  
are outside its scope. The act of running the Program  
is not restricted, and the output from the Program is  
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on  
the Program (independent of having been made by  
running the Program). Whether that is true depends  
on what the Program does.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that  
forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to  
surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain  
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the  
software, or if you modify it.  
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,  
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients  
all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they,  
too, receive or can get the source code. And you must  
show them these terms so they know their rights.  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the  
Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium,  
provided that you conspicuously and appropriately  
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright  
notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the  
notices that refer to this License and to the absence  
of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the  
Program a copy of this License along with the Program.  
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the  
software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you  
legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the  
software.  
Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to  
make certain that everyone understands that there is no  
warranty for this free software. If the software is modified  
by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients  
to know that what they have is not the original, so that  
any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the  
original authorsreputations.  
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring  
a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty  
protection in exchange for a fee.  
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program  
or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the  
Program, and copy and distribute such modifications  
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided  
that you also meet all of these conditions:  
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by  
software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that  
redistributors of a free program will individually obtain  
patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary.  
To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must  
be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.  
a. You must cause the modified files to carry  
prominent notices stating that you changed the  
files and the date of any change.  
b. You must cause any work that you distribute or  
publish, that in whole or in part contains or is  
derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be  
licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties  
under the terms of this License.  
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution  
and modification follow.

Appendix F  
c. If the modified program normally reads commands  
c. Accompany it with the information you received as  
totheoffertodistributecorrespondingsourcecode.  
(This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial  
distribution and only if you received the program  
in object code or executable form with such an  
offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)  
interactively when run, you must cause it, when  
started running for such interactive use in the most  
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement  
including an appropriate copyright notice and  
a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying  
that you provide a warranty) and that users may  
redistribute the program under these conditions,  
and telling the user how to view a copy of  
this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is  
interactive but does not normally print such an  
announcement, your work based on the Program  
is not required to print an announcement.)  
The source code for a work means the preferred form  
of the work for making modifications to it. For an  
executable work, complete source code means all  
the source code for all modules it contains, plus any  
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts  
used to control compilation and installation of the  
executable. However, as a special exception, the source  
code distributed need not include anything that is  
normally distributed (in either source or binary form)  
with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so  
on) of the operating system on which the executable  
runs, unless that component itself accompanies the  
executable.  
These requirements apply to the modified work as  
a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not  
derived from the Program, and can be reasonably  
considered independent and separate works in  
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not  
apply to those sections when you distribute them as  
separate works. But when you distribute the same  
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on  
the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on  
the terms of this License, whose permissions for other  
licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each  
and every part regardless of who wrote it.  
If distribution of executable or object code is made  
by offering access to copy from a designated place,  
then offering equivalent access to copy the source  
code from the same place counts as distribution of  
the source code, even though third parties are not  
compelled to copy the source along with the object  
code.  
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights  
or contest your rights to work written entirely by you;  
rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the  
distribution of derivative or collective works based on  
the Program.  
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute  
the Program except as expressly provided under  
this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,  
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will  
automatically terminate your rights under this License.  
However, parties who have received copies, or rights,  
from you under this License will not have their licenses  
terminated so long as such parties remain in full  
compliance.  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not  
based on the Program with the Program (or with a  
work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage  
or distribution medium does not bring the other work  
under the scope of this License.  
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you  
have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you  
permission to modify or distribute the Program or its  
derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if  
you do not accept this License.Therefore, by modifying  
or distributing the Program (or any work based on the  
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License  
to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,  
distributing or modifying the Program or works based  
on it.  
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a  
work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or  
executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2  
above provided that you also do one of the following:  
a. Accompany it with the complete corresponding  
machine-readable source code, which must be  
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2  
above on a medium customarily used for software  
interchange; or,  
b. Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least  
three years, to give any third party, for a charge  
no more than your cost of physically performing  
source distribution, a complete machine-readable  
copy of the corresponding source code, to be  
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2  
above on a medium customarily used for software  
interchange; or,  
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work  
based on the Program), the recipient automatically  
receives a license from the original licensor to copy,  
distribute or modify the Program subject to these  
terms and conditions. You may not impose any further  
restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights  
granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing  
compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation  
of patent infringement or for any other reason (not  
limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on  
you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise)  
that contradict the conditions of this License, they do  
not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If  
you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously  
your obligations under this License and any other  
pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you  
may not distribute the Program at all. For example,  
if a patent license would not permit royalty-free  
redistribution of the Program by all those who receive  
copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only  
way you could satisfy both it and this License would be  
to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.  
not specify a version number of this License, you  
may choose any version ever published by the Free  
Software Foundation.  
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into  
other free programs whose distribution conditions are  
different, write to the author to ask for permission. For  
software which is copyrighted by the Free Software  
Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we  
sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will  
be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status  
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting  
the sharing and reuse of software generally.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear  
that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the  
library is modified by someone else and passed on, the  
recipients should know that what they have is not the  
original version, so that the original author’s reputation  
will not be affected by problems that might be introduced  
by others.  
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
Version 2.1, February 1999  
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.  
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301,  
USA  
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim  
copies of this license document, but changing it is not  
allowed.  
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the  
existence of any free program. We wish to make sure  
that a company cannot effectively restrict the users of  
a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a  
patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license  
obtained for a version of the library must be consistent  
with the full freedom of use specified in this license.  
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also  
counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License,  
version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]  
Preamble  
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered  
by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license,  
the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain  
designated libraries, and is quite different from the  
ordinary General Public License. We use this license for  
certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries  
into non-free programs.  
The licenses for most software are designed to take away  
your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU  
General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your  
freedom to share and change free software—to make  
sure the software is free for all its users.  
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to  
some specially designated software packages—typically  
libraries—of the Free Software Foundation and other  
authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we  
suggest you first think carefully about whether this license  
or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy  
to use in any particular case, based on the explanations  
below.  
When a program is linked with a library, whether  
statically or using a shared library, the combination of  
the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative  
of the original library. The ordinary General Public  
License therefore permits such linking only if the entire  
combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General  
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other  
code with the library.  
When we speak of free software, we are referring to  
freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses  
are designed to make sure that you have the freedom  
to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this  
service if you wish); that you receive source code or can  
get it if you want it; that you can change the software and  
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are  
informed that you can do these things.  
We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License  
because it does Less to protect the user’s freedom than  
the ordinary General Public License. It also provides  
other free software developers Less of an advantage over  
competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are  
the reason we use the ordinary General Public License  
for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides  
advantages in certain special circumstances.  
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that  
forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you  
to surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to  
certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of  
the library or if you modify it.  
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special  
need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain  
library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve  
this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library.  
A more frequent case is that a free library does the same  
job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is  
little to gain by limiting the free library to free software  
only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.  
For example, if you distribute copies of the library,  
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients  
all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that  
they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link  
other code with the library, you must provide complete  
object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them  
with the library after making changes to the library and  
recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so  
they know their rights.  
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-  
free programs enables a greater number of people to use  
a large body of free software. For example, permission to  
use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many  
more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as  
well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.  
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we  
copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license,  
which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/  
or modify the library.  
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less  
protective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that the  
user of a program that is linked with the Library has the

freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a  
modified version of the Library.  
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the  
Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in  
any medium, provided that you conspicuously and  
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate  
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep  
intact all the notices that refer to this License and to  
the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of  
this License along with the Library.  
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution  
and modification follow. Pay close attention to the  
difference between a “work based on the library” and a  
“work that uses the library. The former contains code  
derived from the library, whereas the latter must be  
combined with the library in order to run.  
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring  
a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty  
protection in exchange for a fee.  
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE  
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND  
MODIFICATION  
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or  
any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the  
Library, and copy and distribute such modifications  
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided  
that you also meet all of these conditions:  
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library  
or other program which contains a notice placed by  
the copyright holder or other authorized party saying  
it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser  
General Public License (also calledthis License”). Each  
licensee is addressed as “you.  
a) The modified work must itself be a software  
library.  
b) You must cause the files modified to carry  
prominent notices stating that you changed the  
files and the date of any change.  
A “library” means a collection of software functions  
and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked  
with application programs (which use some of those  
functions and data) to form executables.  
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be  
licensed at no charge to all third parties under the  
terms of this License.  
TheLibrary, below, refers to any such software library  
or work which has been distributed under these terms.  
Awork based on the Librarymeans either the Library  
or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to  
say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it,  
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated  
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter,  
translation is included without limitation in the term  
“modification.)  
d) IfafacilityinthemodifiedLibraryreferstoafunction  
or a table of data to be supplied by an application  
program that uses the facility, other than as an  
argument passed when the facility is invoked, then  
you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,  
in the event an application does not supply such  
function or table, the facility still operates, and  
performs whatever part of its purpose remains  
meaningful.  
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of  
the work for making modifications to it. For a library,  
complete source code means all the source code for  
all modules it contains, plus any associated interface  
definition files, plus the scripts used to control  
compilation and installation of the library.  
(For example, a function in a library to compute  
square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-  
defined independent of the application. Therefore,  
Subsection 2d requires that any application-  
supplied function or table used by this function  
must be optional: if the application does not supply  
it, the square root function must still compute  
square roots.)  
Activities other than copying, distribution and  
modification are not covered by this License; they are  
outside its scope. The act of running a program using  
the Library is not restricted, and output from such a  
program is covered only if its contents constitute a  
work based on the Library (independent of the use  
of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is  
true depends on what the Library does and what the  
program that uses the Library does.  
These requirements apply to the modified work as  
a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not  
derived from the Library, and can be reasonably  
considered independent and separate works in  
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do  
not apply to those sections when you distribute  
them as separate works. But when you distribute  
the same sections as part of a whole which is a  
work based on the Library, the distribution of the  
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose  
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire  
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless  
of who wrote it.

Appendix F  
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim  
When awork that uses the Libraryuses material from  
a header file that is part of the Library, the object code  
for the work may be a derivative work of the Library  
even though the source code is not. Whether this is  
true is especially significant if the work can be linked  
without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The  
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by  
law.  
rights or contest your rights to work written entirely  
by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to  
control the distribution of derivative or collective  
works based on the Library.  
In addition, mere aggregation of another work  
not based on the Library with the Library (or with  
a work based on the Library) on a volume of a  
storage or distribution medium does not bring the  
other work under the scope of this License.  
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters,  
data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros  
and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length),  
then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless  
of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables  
containing this object code plus portions of the Library  
will still fall under Section 6.)  
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU  
General Public License instead of this License to a  
given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all  
the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer  
to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version  
2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version than  
version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License  
has appeared, then you can specify that version  
instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in  
these notices.  
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you  
may distribute the object code for the work under the  
terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that  
work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are  
linked directly with the Library itself.  
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is  
irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General  
Public License applies to all subsequent copies and  
derivative works made from that copy.  
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also  
combine or link a “work that uses the Library” with the  
Library to produce a work containing portions of the  
Library, and distribute that work under terms of your  
choice, provided that the terms permit modification  
of the work for the customer’s own use and reverse  
engineering for debugging such modifications.  
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the  
code of the Library into a program that is not a library.  
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion  
or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or  
executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and  
2 above provided that you accompany it with the  
complete corresponding machine-readable source  
code, which must be distributed under the terms of  
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used  
for software interchange.  
You must give prominent notice with each copy of  
the work that the Library is used in it and that the  
Library and its use are covered by this License. You  
must supply a copy of this License. If the work during  
execution displays copyright notices, you must include  
the copyright notice for the Library among them, as  
well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this  
License. Also, you must do one of these things:  
If distribution of object code is made by offering  
access to copy from a designated place, then offering  
equivalent access to copy the source code from the  
same place satisfies the requirement to distribute  
the source code, even though third parties are not  
compelled to copy the source along with the object  
code.  
a) Accompany the work with the complete  
corresponding machine-readable source code  
for the Library including whatever changes were  
used in the work (which must be distributed  
under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work  
is an executable linked with the Library, with the  
complete machine-readable “work that uses the  
Library, as object code and/or source code, so that  
the user can modify the Library and then relink  
to produce a modified executable containing the  
modified Library. (It is understood that the user  
who changes the contents of definitions files in the  
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the  
application to use the modified definitions.)  
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion  
of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library  
by being compiled or linked with it, is called a “work  
that uses the Library. Such a work, in isolation, is not  
a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls  
outside the scope of this License.  
However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with  
the Library creates an executable that is a derivative  
of the Library (because it contains portions of the  
Library), rather than a “work that uses the library. The  
executable is therefore covered by this License. Section  
6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking  
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or  
distribute the Library except as expressly provided  
under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy,  
modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library  
is void, and will automatically terminate your rights  
under this License. However, parties who have received  
copies, or rights, from you under this License will not  
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties  
remain in full compliance.  
with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that  
(1) uses at run time a copy of the library already  
present on the user’s computer system, rather than  
copying library functions into the executable, and  
(2) will operate properly with a modified version of  
the library, if the user installs one, as long as the  
modified version is interface-compatible with the  
version that the work was made with.  
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you  
have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you  
permission to modify or distribute the Library or its  
derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if  
you do not accept this License.Therefore, by modifying  
or distributing the Library (or any work based on the  
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License  
to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,  
distributing or modifying the Library or works based  
on it.  
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid  
for at least three years, to give the same user the  
materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a  
charge no more than the cost of performing this  
distribution.  
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access  
to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent  
access to copy the above specified materials from  
the same place.  
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of  
these materials or that you have already sent this  
user a copy.  
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work  
based on the Library), the recipient automatically  
receives a license from the original licensor to copy,  
distribute, link with or modify the Library subject  
to these terms and conditions. You may not impose  
any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of  
the rights granted herein. You are not responsible  
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this  
License.  
For an executable, the required form of the “work that  
uses the Library” must include any data and utility  
programs needed for reproducing the executable from  
it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be  
distributed need not include anything that is normally  
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the  
major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the  
operating system on which the executable runs, unless  
that component itself accompanies the executable.  
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation  
of patent infringement or for any other reason (not  
limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on  
you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise)  
that contradict the conditions of this License, they do  
not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If  
you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously  
your obligations under this License and any other  
pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may  
not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent  
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of  
the Library by all those who receive copies directly or  
indirectly through you, then the only way you could  
satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain  
entirely from distribution of the Library.  
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the  
license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that  
do not normally accompany the operating system.  
Such a contradiction means you cannot use both  
them and the Library together in an executable that  
you distribute.  
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based  
on the Library side-by-side in a single library together  
with other library facilities not covered by this License,  
and distribute such a combined library, provided that  
the separate distribution of the work based on the  
Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise  
permitted, and provided that you do these two  
things:  
If any portion of this section is held invalid or  
unenforceable under any particular circumstance,  
the balance of the section is intended to apply, and  
the section as a whole is intended to apply in other  
circumstances.  
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the  
same work based on the Library, uncombined with  
any other library facilities. This must be distributed  
under the terms of the Sections above.  
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to  
infringe any patents or other property right claims or  
to contest validity of any such claims; this section has  
the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free  
software distribution system which is implemented  
by public license practices. Many people have  
made generous contributions to the wide range of  
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of

COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear  
what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this
