Kit Applies To: PATHWORKS for DIGITAL UNIX V6.1b
DIGITAL UNIX V4.0 through V4.0d
ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for PATHWORKS for DIGITAL UNIX V6.1b on DIGITAL UNIX
V4.0 through V4.0d.
Problems addressed in the PWUNIX_ECO161b kit:
o A T_DISCONNECT is pending, the transport resources will not be
consumed until none are available for connections.
o The printer sub-system returns the error code that indicates that
the requested print destination does not exist when the print
destination is not found in /etc/printcap.
o A negative position request in a file seek SMB will position the
file at the beginning and return success.
o Increased the robustness of oplocks.
o The user is now warned when copying to an existing directory
on a PATHWORKS share.
o The size of the hash table in an ACL file is now a power of 2.
This increases the performance of the server when processing
ACL's.
o The acladm utility will now accept ACL's that have NULL pointers
to either Discretionary ACL's or Security ACL's.
o The capability to turn on and off Debug Trace (logging) while the
server is running has been reenabled.
o Delete permissions are included in the created shares for an
initial installation of PATHWORKS or an upgrade. For shares
that were saved from a previous version of PATHWORKS, the
permissions are unchanged.
o The Rename SMB used by Microsoft Word for Windows 95 will set
the same ACL (which didn't have a System Security Descriptor)
twice without returning failure to the client.
o An error is now returned by the NT Create&X SMB when the path
named was a directory and the flags indicated that this should
not be a directory.
o A network with many domains can now be successfully browsed.
o Servers that belong to the current domain and are on a different
subnet (LAN) than the server/domain where net view or pwadmin
are attached to are displayed.
o A "#PRE" entry in the lmhosts file is now properly cached.
Browsing across a WAN with a trusted account can now be performed.
o A UNIX account created by Advanced Server for UNIX will now be
initially locked. The lock will have to be reset before a user
can login directly to the UNIX account.
o A month, day and year field is now processed correctly for years
following 2000.
o The name of a file on a PATHWORKS share can now be changed to a
longer name with Windows NT.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
The PATHWORKS for DIGITAL UNIX 6.1B kit is a complete kit that you
install by using the setld utility. You must deinstall PATHWORKS for
DIGITAL UNIX subsets that were previously installed. See the PATHWORKS
for DIGITAL UNIX Installation and Administration guide for more
information
