NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored
on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file.
The name of the compressed file will be kit_name-dcx_vaxexe
for OpenVMS VAX or kit_name-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha.
Once the file is copied to your system, it can be expanded
by typing RUN compressed_file. The resultant file will
be the OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file which
can be used to install the ECO.

ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for the LOGINOUT and the Security Server on OpenVMS
Alpha V6.2, V6.2-1H1, V6.2-1H2 and V6.2-1H3.
Problems addressed in ALPLOAD02_062:
o The DISUSER flag gets set on a user account when no intrusions
are present.
Problems addressed in ALPLOAD02_070:
o After installing the ALPLOAD01_070 kit on V6.2 systems, logins
were not possible.
Problems addressed in ALPLOAD01_070:
o The $GETUAI and $SETUAI services may return RMS record locked
errors when attempting to access the SYSUAF. These errors
will happen if the caller uses these services with a context
block supplied (which keeps the SYSUAF open), and encounters a
locked record for other than the initial call (because the RMS
structures are not correctly re-initialized after the initial
call).
This problem is corrected in OpenVMS Alpha V7.0
o Some logins are not correctly audited due to a disconnected
terminal checking loop which can exit before audits are
restored.
o Users without WORLD privileges generate many "No WORLD priv"
audits when logging in.
o Proxy behavior is unpredictable. Sometimes they are
inoperative and at other times access is given to an
incorrect place.
o Records in the old intrusion database can not be deleted
because they are ill-formed (i.e., they contain control
characters, nulls, spaces, etc.).
o If a user is prompted for and successfully enters a new password
at login time, no audit records are written or displayed.
Problems addressed in ALPLOAD01_062:
o Five seconds after a password is entered, a login is rejected.
o A login attempt hangs for 30 seconds and is then rejected.
Problems addressed in ALPLOGI02_070:
o Users with an expired password, but with the DISFORCE_PWD_CHANGE
flag set, are getting their password unexpired even though they
do not set a new password.
o Audit information about network sessions from TCP/IP connections
does not contain remote host information.
Problems Addressed in ALPLOGI01_070:
o Intrusion records and audits from DECnet/OSI network
connections have a username padded with characters.
o A user typing meaningless characters, whitespace, or "/" in
response to the USERNAME prompt receives a CLI error and then
successfully logs in. This causes both an intrusion and an
incorrect audit to be generated.
o Errors may occur in a log file specification when a logical name
is used. When using item code SJC$_LOG_SPECIFICATION with
SYS$SNDJBCW, OpenVMS V6.2 handles logical names differently than
OpenVMS V6.1 and earlier versions.
For example, using "TEST" as the log file specification, the
DCL command 'DEFINE/SYSTEM TEST DEV1:[USER.TMP]' gives the
following results from $SNDJBC when executed from directory
DEV1:[USER]:
For OpenVMS V6.1:
DEV1:[USER.TMP]jobname.LOG
For OpenVMS V6.2:
DEV1:[USER.TMP].LOG
o When setting host into a DECnet Phase V system, the logical name
SYS$REM_NODE is set incorrectly.
INSTALLATION NOTES:
In order for the corrections in this kit to take effect, the system must
be rebooted. If the system is a member of a VMScluster, the entire
cluster should be rebooted.
