ECO KIT SUMMARY:

An ECO kit exists for Advanced Printing Software (APS) V1.0 on Compaq 
Tru64 UNIX [R] V4.0D through V4.0F.  This kit addresses the following 
problems: 

Problems addressed in APXSVR100E01:

  o  A potential security vulnerability exists in the supervisor server
     process.  (This vulnerability does not affect normal unprivileged 
     users.) 

     The potential security vulnerability in the supervisor (pdspvr) 
     program affects users who are designated Print System Administrators. 
     The version of pdspvr supplied with this ECO corrects this problem.  
     It is identified by the version string "1.0-A", which can be obtained 
     by running the program with the -V option.

  NOTE:  This ECO applies only to server ("APXSVR100") installations.  
         Advanced Printing client installations do not require this ECO.  
         To determine which Advanced Printing subsets are installed, use 
         the following command:

           # setld -i | grep APX

           # /usr/pd/lib/pdspvr -V

         The version supplied with this patch identifies itself as "1.0-A".  
         The version supplied with V4.0F identified itself as "1.0-APX100".


INSTALLATION NOTES:

This ECO applies only to the Supervisor supplied with the APXSVR100 subset.
Advanced Printing base client installations do not require this ECO.  To
determine which Advanced Printing subsets are installed, use the following
command:

        #  setld -i | grep APX

Installation of this ECO requires the subset APXSVR100 to have been 
previously installed.  During the installation process, updated files 
will be replaced.  To install this ECO, use the setld command:

        # setld -l <directory_where_eco_was_downloaded>

Once the ECO installation is completed, Compaq recommends you stop all
supervisors on the system and restart them for the changes to take effect:

        # ps axwo command | grep lib/pdspvr | egrep -v grep | awk '{print $NF}'

        The above will print out the names of all supervisors running on this
        system.  Next, for each name returned, do the following to shut down
        the supervisor processes:

        # pdshutdown -w now <name_of_supervisor>

        Lastly, restart the supervisor processes

        #  /sbin/init.d/apx start


To remove this ECO, use setld to delete the ECO subset.  When the subset
it de-installed, the original files will be replaced.

        #  setld -d APXSVR100E01
