ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for POLYCENTER Manager on NetView for Digital UNIX
V4.1B on Digital UNIX V3.2 through V4.0.  This kit addresses the 
following problems: 

  o  c_arf2srf command would core

     The c_arf2srf command would core dump whenever used.

  o  Events window would core when clearing selected events from a
     workspace 

     The Events window (nvevents) would core when the menu item
     "Edit->Clear Selected->From This Workspace" was selected. 

  o  nvsecd would core when "Group list" popup was selected from nvauth

     The nvsecd daemon would core when the "Group list" popup was
     selected from the nvauth application 

  o  Acknowledge propagation not working for open topology

     When you acknowledged one interface for a node, the node would turn
     green (even though there were other red interfaces for the node
     which had not been acknowledged). 

  o  EUI would core when doing "refresh" after double-clicking on
     childless icon 

     The EUI would core when doing a "File->Refresh Map" on a read-only
     map after double-clicking on an icon with no children. 

  o  Automatic action for traps would sometimes not work

     Under certain circumstances, an automatic action for a trap would
     not be invoked and the error message which was displayed showed
     garbage characters at the end of the action command. 

  o  In the Events Window, "Suppress Traps From Unmanaged Nodes" would
     not work 

     In the Events Window, "Options->Suppress Traps From Unmanaged Nodes" 
     would not work correctly, traps from unmanaged nodes were still 
     appearing in the Events window.

  o  Trap configuration updates not occurring immediately

     After modifying a trap using the "Options->Event Configuration:
     Trap Customization: SNMP..." window, the modification would not
     take effect until the daemons were stopped and restarted. 

     NOTE:  This problem only occurred on Digital UNIX V4.0.

  o  Cores fixed in nvserverd and nvlockd daemons

     Under certain circumstances, the nvserverd and nvlockd daemons
     would core.
