Did you look inside the zip file for tcpinst.exe or install.cmd?

Update != install. This is IBM language.

I suspect that is the case. It's easy to do if you attempt to think of
TCP/IP as a single component. In truth, it's really two components. The
MPTS stack and the TCP/IP applications. The MPTS stack can be updated
separately or in conjunction with the TCP/IP applications. It depends on
the FP.

I'll have to check this later. The site is not responding at the moment.

That's true. There are different TCP/IP FPs for the different TCP/IP
flavors.

Keep in mind that TCP/IP v4.1 includes a version of the 32-bit MPTS stack,
but that you can run the 32-bit MPTS stack without the 16-bit TCP/IP
applications. When you install v4.1 all that will really change is that
you will have the 32-bit applications installed.
