    Install both!  (server first, client second)
    
    Ok, I just read what was written in the Release Notes on page 1.  It is
    poor wording and I can see how it might be interpreted the way you have
    expressed it.
    
    What the paragraph is trying to say is that the Server kit *ONLY*
    updates the Server bits, where as, the v1.0 version of the product
    supplied both Server and Client bits.  You now have to install a
    separate kit to update the Client bits.  Since you were reading the
    Server Release Notes, they were being Server Centric and not really
    talking about Client related changes.
    
    Bottom Line.  Install both kits (Server kit 1st, Please).  There are
    just as many important changes in the Client kit as there are in the
    server kit for v1.1.  I don't know if there are printed release notes
    for the Client kit, but as part of the "PATHWORKS v1.1" volume there
    are 20 pages of Release Notes which you should also read.
