ECO NUMBER: ALPRAMP01_061 ----------- PRODUCT: OpenVMS Alpha Operating System -------- UPDATED PRODUCT: OpenVMS Alpha Operating System 6.1 ---------------- APPRX BLCK SIZE: 198 ---------------- UPDATE PRODUCT: OpenVMS Alpha OPERATING SYSTEM 6.1 COVER LETTER 1 KIT NAME: ALPRAMP01_061 2 PURPOSE OF KIT The sole purpose of this kit is to restore OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 and SEVMS ALPHA V6.1 to C2 and B1 evaluated configurations, respectively. Specifically, this kit should only be installed on an OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 system built from the QA-MT1AA-H8.6.1 or SEVMS Alpha V6.1 built from the QA-3DVAA-H8.6.1 software distribution kits. This kit is listed on the EPL and should only be applied to these base operating system kits, which are also listed on the EPL. NOTE: This kit should only be applied to these base operating system kits. This kit should never be applied to any other system configuration, including these base systems with any other installed TIMA kits or MUPs. An evaluated configuration can only be achieved if one of the base systems and this kit are installed together. Any other configuration using this kit is not on the EPL. 3 KITS SUPERSEDED BY THIS KIT: None 4 KIT DESCRIPTION: 4.1 Version(s) of OpenVMS to which this kit may be applied: OpenVMS Alpha V6.1 and SEVMS ALPHA V6.1 4.2 In order to receive the full fixes listed in this kit the following remedial kits also need to be installed: None 4.3 Files patched or replaced for SEVMS Alpha V6.1: o [SYSEXE]AUTHORIZE.EXE o [SYS$LDR]IO_ROUTINES.EXE -- COVER LETTER -- Page 2 17 May 1996 o [SYS$LDR]IO_ROUTINES_MON.EXE o [SYS$LDR]LOGICAL_NAMES.EXE o [SYSEXE]NCP.EXE o [SYS$LDR]NDDRIVER.EXE o [SYSEXE]NETACP.EXE o [SYS$LDR]NETDRIVER.EXE o [SYSEXE]NETSERVER.EXE o [SYSMSG]NETWRKMSG.EXE o [SYSEXE]NICONFIG.EXE o [SYSEXE]NML.EXE o [SYSLIB]NMLSHR.EXE o [SYSEXE]REMACP.EXE o [SYS$LDR]SECURITY.EXE o [SYSEXE]SETSHOCLASS.EXE o [SYSEXE]STOPREM.EXE o [SYSMSG]SYSMGTMSG.EXE o [SYSLIB]VMS$IMAGES_MASTER.DAT o [SYSUPD]VMSINSTAL.COM 4.4 Files patched or replaced for VMS Alpha V6.1: o [SYSEXE]AUTHORIZE.EXE o [SYS$LDR]IO_ROUTINES.EXE o [SYS$LDR]IO_ROUTINES_MON.EXE o [SYS$LDR]LOGICAL_NAMES.EXE o [SYSEXE]NCP.EXE o [SYS$LDR]NDDRIVER.EXE o [SYSEXE]NETACP.EXE -- COVER LETTER -- Page 3 17 May 1996 o [SYS$LDR]NETDRIVER.EXE o [SYSEXE]NETSERVER.EXE o [SYSMSG]NETWRKMSG.EXE o [SYSEXE]NICONFIG.EXE o [SYSEXE]NML.EXE o [SYSLIB]NMLSHR.EXE o [SYSEXE]REMACP.EXE o [SYS$LDR]SECURITY.EXE o [SYSEXE]STOPREM.EXE o [SYSMSG]SYSMGTMSG.EXE o [SYSLIB]VMS$IMAGES_MASTER.DAT o [SYSUPD]VMSINSTAL.COM 5 PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN ALPRAMP01_061 KIT o This enhancement provides C2 security support to Alpha OpenVMS DECnet phase IV. These enhancements include: o NCP Command Line Auditing o Connection Auditing o Privilege Auditing. o The MC AUTHORIZE REM/IDENT command does not return the status it used to. It now returns "1" even when the command fails. This problem is corrected in Alpha OpenVMS V6.2. o A user with the READALL privilege should be able to read a logical name table to which access is otherwise denied. However, this is failing with a NOPRIV error. This problem is corrected in Alpha OpenVMS V6.2. o VMSINSTAL security change. This problem is corrected in Alpha OpenVMS V7.0. -- COVER LETTER -- Page 4 17 May 1996 o SEVMS tape handling support missing from VMSINSTAL.COM and SPKITBLD.COM. This lack of support prohibits the operation of VMSINSTAL/SPKITBLD on SEVMS systems using a tape drive as the source device. This problem is corrected in OpenVMS V6.2. o MAC access was not being immediately applied when outgoing links were defined. This problem is corrected in OpenVMS V6.2. 6 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Install this kit with the VMSINSTAL utility by logging into the SYSTEM account, and typing the following at the DCL prompt: @SYS$UPDATE:VMSINSTAL ALPRAMP01_061 [location of the saveset] The saveset location may be a tape drive, or a disk directory that contains the kit saveset. This kit MUST be applied to every Alpha system disk in your system. System should be rebooted after successful installation of the kit. If you have other nodes in your VMScluster, they should also be rebooted in order to make use of the new image(s). Copyright (c) Digital Equipment Corporation, 1996 All Rights Reserved.
