ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for DIGITAL Optical Storage Desktop Software (OSDS)
on DIGITAL UNIX V4.0B and V4.0D.  This kit addresses the following
problems: 

Problems Addressed in OSDSE01016:

  o   This Product is Year 2000 compliant. Utilities that use date are 
      found to work well, even after year 2000.

  o   A new daemon called "oupdate" is added to sync WORM volumes. When WORM
      volumes are used oupdate should be invoked as follows:
      
         /usr/sbin/oupdate n
         where 'n' is the time interval in seconds for successive syncing of
         the WORM media.

  o   Corrections have been made to the man pages to help in case of utilities
      which use the regression date.
