ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for ACSMxp for Windows NT Alpha V3.1 on Windows NT
Alpha V4.0.  This kit addresses the following problems: 

  o Starting a tpsystem as a Windows NT service

    If you tried to start a tpsystem as a service prior to this
    release it would not work. This has been corrected.

  o XA support using Encina

    Prior to this release XA transactional support using the
    ACMSxp Encina option had not been tested due to the lack
    of a XA compliant resource manager. This feature has
    been successfully tested and all known problems have been
    corrected.
