The ASU Version 5.1B-3 kit provides enhancements and corrections for
problems found in the ASU Version 5.1B-2 software, including ECO1 and in
earlier versions of the ASU software.
Some of the enhancements and corrections in
the ASU Version 5.1B-3 kit:
- The ASU server is now able to notify clients of changes made by UNIX programs and commands.
- The ASU server now supports mailslot messages sent to the cluster alias IP address.
- ASU now supports locales with an expanding character set such as the UTF-8 codeset, for example, fi_FI.UTF-8 or ja_JP.UTF-8, for file names and pathnames.
- Interoperability between smbfs on a Linux client and the ASU server has been improved.
- The elfread command has been enhanced with three new options for managing ASU event log settings.
- A new registry parameter, MemberUseAnyDC, can improve connection
response time by allowing an ASU member server to use any available domain
controller for validating authentication requests.
- Two new lanman.ini parameters, logunixpasswordchgsuccess and
logunixpasswordchgfailure, have been added under the [lmxserver] section
to control the logging of UNIX password changes by the ASDUPASS utility
and also by the ASU server when the SyncUnixPassword registry entry is
enabled.
- The pccheck client tool has been enhanced with a new option, -escalate,
to collect the system configuration of Windows NT systems. The files are
collected in compressed form, as a cab file, in the pccheck directory.
