ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for TCP/IP V5.3 on OpenVMS Alpha V7.2-2 through
V7.3-1. This kit addresses the following problems:
PROBLEMS ADDRESSED IN AXPVMS-TCPIP_ECO-V0503-182-4
PREVIOUSLY UNDOCUMENTED BEHAVIOR:
--------------------------------------------------------------
1: Dependency for PPP on OpenVMS 7.2-2 and above
--------------------------------------------------------------
IPCP negotiation of IP address between PC client and OVMS PPP
server fails to assign client an IP address.
Many problems were fixed in the OpenVMS PPPDRIVER. Therefore
it is required that all customers running PPP on OpenVMS
versions 7.2-2 and above install a patch for PPPDRIVER.
Alpha VMS kit (minimum version)
----- -------------------------
7.2-2 VMS722_PPPD-V0200
7.3 VMS73_PPPD-V0200
--------------------------------------------------------------
2: SMTP dependency on VMS Kits
--------------------------------------------------------------
Problem:
When one composes a mail message in VMS mail and enters an
SMTP address at the To: prompt and at the Cc: prompt the
address originally entered at the Cc: prompt is not put into a
Cc: RFC header in the SMTP message but is instead put into the
To: RFC header.
Dependencies:
For this fix to be effective the following VMS kits must be
installed.

7.3 VAXMAIL01_073
--------------------------------------------------------------
3: PTRs 30-10-194/30-10-174 IMAP Dependency on VMS Kits
--------------------------------------------------------------
The underlying OpenVMS problem has been fixed in OpenVMS
versions 7.3-1 and later. For users running earlier versions
of OpenVMS the following two steps must be performed to enable
IMAP upload support:
1) Install one of the following patches based on which OpenVMS
version you are running:
Alpha VMS kit (minimum version)
----- -------------------------
7.2-2 VMS722_SYSLOA-V0200
7.3 VMS73_SYSLOA-V0300
NOTE: This patch need only be installed on the system or
systems that are running the IMAP server. Cluster nodes that
aren't running the IMAP server are not required to install the
patch.
2) Add this line to your TCPIP$IMAP.CONF file:
Upload-Supported: TRUE
WARNING: Do not set the Upload-Supported switch on an
unpatched system running an OpenVMS version prior to 7.3-1
--------------------------------------------------------------
4: Inability of new IMAP clients to connect
--------------------------------------------------------------
Problem:
Inability of new IMAP clients to connect and of some connected
clients to open additional folders.
Problem detail:
The IMAP server supports an application specific limit on the
number of connections an IMAP server process can handle before
it forces the kernel to create a new IMAP server process. This
value is set in the TCPIP$IMAP.CONF file to 25
(Max-Connections:25). The service limit default value
(currently 16) should not be less than the application limit
of 25 but in fact should be much higher or a server hang can
result. As an example, if a customer were to use Netscape
which, we have observed, uses five connections. That would
mean that 16/5 or any more than 3 concurrently attached IMAP
Netscape clients would exhaust the 16 connection limit.
Workaround:
Update the IMAP service limit from 16 to 1600:
$ tcpip set service imap/limit=1600
$ tcpip show service imap/full/perm
Stop and start IMAP:
$ @sys$startup:TCPIP$IMAP_SHUTDOWN
$ SHOW SYSTEM/PROCESS=*IMAP* (until no more IMAP processes are left)
$ @sys$startup:TCPIP$IMAP_STARTUP
--------------------------------------------------------------
5: PTR 75-86-140 nslookup via telnet fails on V7.3-1
--------------------------------------------------------------
This problem was reported on OpenVMS SSB V7.3-1 with TCPIP
V5.3, the symptom being that nslookup in interactive mode
failed when connected via telnet.
Problem detail:
For a system that is, for example, accessed via Telnet (rather
than set host) that also has set the sysgen parameter MAXBUF
to greater than 32K (actually the precise breaking point may
be 33279), if they execute a C program that uses a C runtime
call (such as getc or gets) to read data from the terminal,
they can encounter this problem. The C program may return
some generic user IO error message rather than the specific
errors returned by RMS. (Specifically, TT driver returns an
SS$_IVBUFLEN error to the $QIO RMS issued, and RMS returns
RMS-F-QIO in the RAB$L_STS and SYS-F-IVBUFLEN in the RAB$L_STV
to the caller.)
Workaround:
A proactive measure or immediate workaround to the problem on
any system if MAXBUF is set to higher than 32K is to set the
MAXBUF sysgen parameter down to 32K. This is a dynamic
parameter so no reboot is required. We are not aware of any
applications that would "break" by setting MAXBUF down to
32K. Once the remedial kit is installed, MAXBUF can be reset
to some higher value.
Solution:
VMS kit VMS731_RMS-V0100
--------------------------------------------------------------
6: PTR 70-5-2210 ARP timeouts not tunable over 32767
--------------------------------------------------------------
The ARP timeouts arpkillc, arpkilli, and arprefresh are
limited to 32767. This known problem was introduced in V5.3
SSB.
--------------------------------------------------------------
7: PTRs 70-5-2191 and 70-5-2194 SMTP mail hang
--------------------------------------------------------------
70-5-2191/CFS-96560:
TCPIP V5.3 ECO1 incoming SMTP mail job stuck in processing due
to mail hang on $BRKTHRU called from MAILSHRP with VMS73-SYS
patch.
70-5-2194/CFS-96677:
SMTP mail hangs with AXPVMS VMS73_SYS V5.0.

Problem:
The typeless_directories export option does not work with
directories on an ODS5 volume if the .DIR name extension is not
all upper case. Such directory names are not supported, but
OpenVMS currently allows them to work with case blind lookup.
This change makes NFS server behavior more consistent with
OpenVMS behavior.

2 = open_directory_on_readdir and cache it.
3 = turn on both 1 and 2 above.

Problem:
When running in a cluster the DHCP server sometimes does not
recognize existing leases in the lease database resulting in
spurious error conditions. In some cases the message "can't extend
lease" is logged repeatedly and is then followed by the message
"address pool exhausted". The DHCP server then stops serving IP
addresses, thinking the IP address pool was exhausted when in fact
it isn't. Shutting down DHCP on the active DHCP node thus forcing
one of the standby nodes to take over usually frees the condition
until it starts to occur again on the new active node.

Problem:
Attribute Definition Files (ADF) can be created using ODS-5
pseudonyms instead of proper ODS-5 names. One ends up with ADF
files containing the string "\pISO_LATIN\.???" instead of the
expected filename.
Documentation of the FIB$M_NAMES_8BIT bit leads one to expect that
it need only be set when a file is accessed by name, but this bit
must be set at various times when files are accessed by FID. In the
cases where the calling $QIO was doing attribute operations by FID,
FIB$M_NAMES_8BIT would be clear, causing the returned name used to
build the ADF file name to be a pseudonym. Another negative side
affect of this is that files with two different names would share
the same ADF file.

ECO F 26-SEP-2002 Alpha and VAX
Problem:
VMS FTP server is vulnerable to "FTP bounce attack" (CERT advisory
CA-1997-27, c.f. http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-1997-27.html).
This attack is one where the FTP client sends a PORT command
specifying a 3rd party IP address as the IP to which the FTP
server should connect back to for a data connection.
The VMS FTP server now disallows specification of an IP address
other than that of the connected client, or the specification of
a privileged port, in the PORT, LPRT, or EPRT commands. Any
such commands are rejected with:
500 Illegal {PORT|LPRT|EPRT} command.
The VMS FTP server and client also now disallow data connection
"theft" by a 3rd party. For server, this applies to passive-mode
connections from an IP address other than the client's, or from a
privileged port. For client, this applies to active-mode
connections from an IP address other than the server's, or from a
port other than 20 (ftpdata).
Original behavior can be restored by defining these logicals:
Server Client
TCPIP$FTPD_ALLOW_ADDR_REDIRECT TCPIP$FTP_ALLOW_ADDR_REDIRECT
TCPIP$FTPD_ALLOW_PORT_REDIRECT TCPIP$FTP_ALLOW_PORT_REDIRECT
The separate logicals allow for relaxing the IP address and port
checks independently in server and/or client.

ECO 1 updates

ECO A 15-AUG-2002 Alpha and VAX
Problem:
Improved error handling when refetching a message that has
previously been uploaded in corrupt form by a badly-behaved IMAP
client.
30-10-166
Most IMAP clients may be configured to mark a message that has been
deleted by the user as deleted, conventionally by crossing it out
and leaving the message in the list of messages. The delete message
is only truly deleted once the folder is "expunged" - e.g. "Compact
Folders" from Netscape or "Purge Deleted Messages" from Outlook. If
a message has been deleted by a user in VMS character cell mail
between one of the messages being marked deleted by the IMAP client
and the expunge, the wrong messages may appear to have been deleted
in the IMAP client message list. No data is lost and the correct
view of the folder can be obtained by quitting and restarting the
client.
30-10-171
Considering this one a duplicate of BORBONIA 101 for release note
purposes.
87-2-138, 30-10-186
The Pocket PC 2002 Inbox incurs a noticeable performance hit in
returning a complete list of mailboxes for every top-level mailbox.
87-2-94, 30-10-185
IMAP client sometimes sees the following error from the server when
selecting a message:
Message is no longer available on the server
when one can see the message in the folder using VMS character cell
mail.
30-13-22
- Messages deleted from a folder mysteriously reappear.
- Needless downloading of already downloaded headers
- Duplicate copies of the same message in the list of messages in a
folder
- Message headers associated with the wrong message contents
30-10-194, 30-10-174
IMAP clients typically allow users to put copies of each sent
message into a special folder, often called "Sent Items". Similarly
draft copies of messages can be placed into a "Drafts"
folder. These messages are "uploaded" from the IMAP client to the
IMAP server.
In the previous version of the TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS IMAP
server the upload functionality was disabled due to an underlying
bug in OpenVMS which caused severely degraded system performance
when IMAP tried to upload messages. When an IMAP client tried to
upload a message the TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS IMAP server
returned the following error text:
Your client has attempted to upload a message to a folder called
"folder name here". The IMAP server administrator has disabled this
facility.
The underlying OpenVMS problem has been fixed in OpenVMS versions
7.3-1 and later. For users running earlier versions of OpenVMS the
following two steps must be performed to enable IMAP upload
support:
1) Install one of the following patches based on which OpenVMS
version you are running:
Alpha VMS kit (minimum version)
----- -------------------------
7.2-2 VMS722_SYSLOA-V0200
7.3 VMS73_SYSLOA-V0300
NOTE: This patch need only be installed on the system or systems
that are running the IMAP server. Cluster nodes that aren't running
the IMAP server are not required to install the patch.
2) Add this line to your TCPIP$IMAP.CONF file:
Upload-Supported: TRUE
WARNING: Do not set the Upload-Supported switch on an unpatched
system running an OpenVMS version prior to 7.3-1
87-2-143, 30-13-30, 30-13-32
- Deleted or moved messages cannot be purged from OE's list of
messages. Only exiting and re-starting client clears problem.
- Sometimes messages that have been read and marked as not new
reappear as new messages.
30-13-19
This release introduces a performance improvement in opening
folders, at the expense of taking extra time to copy or move
messages: indexing of the contents of a folder that was previously
done when the folder was opened is now typically done when the
contents of that folder change.
30-13-30

Problem:
BIND resolver is unable to perform a name lookup for a host when
BIND database records are returned in the following order: CNAME
record followed by its associated PTR record and when the reverse
address record has been subnetted on a non-byte boundary.
For example, consider the following:
$ tcpip show host 12.30.254.228
gethostby*.getanswer: asked for "228.254.30.12.IN-ADDR.ARPA", got
"228.224/27.254.30.12.IN-ADDR.ARPA"

Listen service processes can encounter SS$_NOSUCHDEV (ENXIO)
error when trying to accept socket handoff from INETACP via
socket(TCPIP$C_AUXS) call.
[2] 70-5-2104:
Listen service processes can encounter SS$_DEVALLOC (EBUSY)
or SS$_BADPARAM (EINVAL) when trying to accept socket handoff
from INETACP via socket(TCPIP$C_AUXS) call. This is more
often seen when the Bind Resolver has been misconfigured
and the service is configured with /LOG=NoAddr.
For the above two problems, OPCOM messages are seen similar to:
INTERnet ACP detected TCPIP$SMTP exiting before 'socket'
The LPD service might report as TCPIP-E-LPD_UNREACHABLE error
on OPCOM and in logs.
[3] 70-5-2203:
When REXEC/RSH server fails to create process for the client
session (e.g. due to SS$_NOSLOT), the INETACP process leaks
a channel to an MBA mailbox device, affecting the INETACP's
BytCnt/Bytlm quota.

ECO B 14-NOV-2002 Alpha and VAX
Problem:
Problem 1:
Two scenarios cause various errors for a DHCP primary interface when
the DHCP client attempts to configure the local host's host name
resulting in:
- errors logged when the DHCP client tries to configure the local
host name onto the local host
- incorrect and/or stale local host database records
- incorrect values displayed by TCPIP SHOW COMMUNICATION
- incorrect values displayed by SHOW NETWORK "TCP/IP"
- incorrect values for the TCPIP$INET_HOST, TCPIP$INET_DOMAIN and
TCPIP$INET_HOSTADDR logical names
- incorrect values for the UCX$INET_HOST, UCX$INET_DOMAIN and
UCX$INET_HOSTADDR logical names
The two scenarios are:
1) The DHCP client, running on a primary interface, receives an
IP address which is different from the IP address it received on
the previous DHCP boot, i.e., same host name, different IP address.
This can happen when the DHCP client is booted, receives an IP
address, operates for some period of time with this address,
shuts down and then does not reboot until after the lease on the
assigned IP address has expired. Once the lease expires the DHCP
server may assign that IP address to a different DHCP client. If
it does this then on the next use of DHCP client your host will
be assigned a different IP address than the one it had before.
2) The DHCP client, running on a primary interface, receives a
host name that is different from the one it was assigned on the
previous DHCP boot but the IP address it receives does not
change, i.e., different host name, same IP address. This can
happen, for example, if you change the host name that DHCP client
suggests to the DHCP server by editing the "HOSTNAME." file. The
next time the DHCP client is invoked to configure the interface
the server may possibly assign your host the same IP address and
also give your host the new name it asked for. (This is only
likely to happen if the DHCP server in use on your network is
capable of accepting host names from clients and is also capable
of and configured to dynamically update the DNS with the IP
address and host name it has assigned to you.)
