ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for Digital Distributing Computing Environment (DCE)
Versions 1.3, 1.3.1 on OSF/1 V3.0. The release notes contain a complete
explanation of the problems addressed in this ECO. The kit is cumulative.
Briefly, the following problems are addressed in DCEECO132:
o Added fix for the "cdscp dump clerk cache" command.
o Fixed memory allocation failure in libdce.so.
o Included new sec_clientd to fix interaction with DCE/SIA.
o Fixed DFS upserver and uplcient that caused them to consume
excessive CPU time.
o Fixed several smaller DFS bugs including fts dump/restore
problems on UFS-based dfs filesets (see Release Notes for
details).
o Added C++ support to the IDL compiler.
o Patched dts_ntp_provider vulnerability disclosed by SATAN.
o Fixed an rpcd bug that could cause the wrong server to be
chosen if more than one server exported the same interface
(but with differing object UUIDs).
o Fixes which were included in ECO #1 (see Release Notes for
complete details).
Problems addressed in ECO1:
o Fixed cdsd and gdad "can't grow stack" error with resulting
core dumps.
o Fixed a signal problem when stopping a DCE client application.
Stopping the DCE client application could kill the cdsadv daemon.
o Fixed problem using unsupported protocol sequences when
obtaining binding.
o Fixed two header files so they can be compiled with varying
options.
o Fixed cdsclerk so a calling DCE application and its associated
cdsclerk threads do not hang. In this state, the cdsclerk
will respond to other application requests.
o Updated DCE Security so that it is compatible with future
releases of OSF DCE Release 1.2.
o Update the configuration tool dcesetup so a Digital DCE V1.3
based system can join a Windows-NT based DCE cell.
o Fixed the configuration tool dcesetup to correctly identify when
DECnet is running.
o Fixed a DFS data corruption bug.
o Fixed a 'dfsbind' bug that would cause it to hang under load.
o Fixed several smaller DFS bugs (see Release Notes for details).
o If DCE/SIA is enabled, the user will no longer be able to give
a bad shell name to 'chsh'.
o Removed command 'dtscp set courier role noncourier' from
configuration.
o Included alternate 'sendmail' and 'mailstats' programs to fix
interaction with DCE/SIA.
