Neither product is vulnerable to this problem. Our implementation of DDNS is not based on the ISC code and is thus not vulnerable to this problem.

It applies to TCPware V5.5-3, VMS/VAX V5.5-2, OpenVMS VAX 6.1 and later, and OpenVMS ALPHA V6.1 and later. The following changes have been made in this kit: FTP_SERVER.EXE - Allows use of SRI encoding of Unix style file names on ODS-5 disks with the logical TCPWARE_FTP_USE_SRI_ENCODING_ON_ODS5. When this logical is defined to 1, TRUE or YES, the SRI file name encoding used for Unix style file names on ODS-2 disks will be used on ODS-5 disks. This also sets the default case of letters in filenames to lowercase and ignores the stored case. The following logicals should also be defined as shown: TCPWARE_FTP_DISALLOW_UNIX_STYLE FALSE TCPWARE_FTP_UNIX_STYLE_BY_DEFAULT TRUE TCPWARE_FTP_UNIX_STYLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE FALSE TCPWARE_FTP_USE_SRI_ENCODING_ON_ODS5 TRUE ECO FTP_V553P060, Rank 3 (DE 7844) - Corrects some errors in computation for the value returned by MDTM (modification time) for some files. ECO FTP_V553P060, Rank 3 (DE 7855) - The value of TCPWARE_FTP_UNIX_STYLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE is now observed. ECO FTP_V553P060, Rank 3 (DE 7860) - Corrects an ACCVIO that can occur when a file with multiple dots gets a "bad version number" error code. ECO FTP_V553P061, Rank 3 (DE 7912) - Corrects an ACCVIO that can occur when renaming a large group of files. ECO FTP_V553P062, Rank 3 (DE 8000) - Corrects an issue where the LS command displays file names in uppercase. ECO FTP_V553P062, Rank 3 (DE 8051) FTP.EXE - Corrects a problem where GET or MGET may fail when there is more than one "." in the file name and the local system is running VMS 7.2-1 or later and the current directory is on an ODS2 disk device. ECO FTP_V553P062, Rank 3 (DE 7915) - Corrects a problem where MGET and MPUT did not preserve the version number order of the transferred files. (ECO FTP_V553P062, Rank 3 (DE 7426) - DIR/FTP and COPY/FTP now support the /PASSIVE qualifier included in the VMS73_DCL-V0200 ECO. ECO FTP_V553P062, Rank 3 (DE 7889) - This kit also provides an informational item below for resolving an ACCVIO problem when transferring a VFC file from VMS 7.3 to non-VMS systems using PUT command. The problem can be resolved by applying the latest VMS FORTRAN RTL ECO (CFAV-FORRTL-V0705-1 from http://www.compaq.com/fortran/downloads.html). ECO FTP_V553P062, Rank 3 (DE 7881) The following changes are included from previous kits: FTP_LISTENER.EXE - When TCPWARE_FTP_NOKEEPALIVES is defined the FTP server will not send keepalives on the control channel. ECO FTP_V553P040, Rank 3 (DE 6875) - Correct a problem with occasional ftp timeouts. If the symptom still presents after applying the patch, a new logical added in this patch should be used to get rid of the symptom. The logical can be defined as: $ define/system/exe TCPWARE_FTP_LISTENER_NO_HIBERNATE_OPTION TRUE ECO FTP_V553P020, Rank 3 (DE7038) FTP_SERVER.EXE - Corrects a problem with using FTP's PUT command to transfer files from DOS/WINDOWS. ASCII mode causes the output files to be corrupted if the original file uses LF instead of CRLF to end the lines. ECO FTP_V553P050, Rank 2 (DE 7534) - Corrects a problem with the TCPWARE_FTP_SEMANTICS_VARIABLE_IGNORE_CC logical. ECO FTP_V553P050, Rank 3 (DE 7591) - Corrects a potential problem with padding the buffer on the last record of the transferred file. ECO FTP_V553P050, Rank 3 (DE 7756) - Adds a logical TCPWARE_FTP_DISALLOW_WILDCARD_DELETES. Define it to anything to disallow the functionality of accepting wildcards on delete. This may be done at the process, group or system level. (DE 7786) - When TCPWARE_FTP_NOKEEPALIVES is defined the FTP server will not send keepalives on the control channel. ECO FTP_V553P040, Rank 3 (DE 6875) - When the logical TCPWARE_FTP_ADD_CC_ON_FIXED_RECORD_FILES is defined to TRUE and a file is transferred as TYPE IMAGE the FTP server will separate the records of a fixed length record file with the linefeed character. This is useful to avoid the explicit conversion necessary when transferring the file to a non-VMS system with a FTP client that is not able to do record mode transfers. ECO FTP_V553P040, Rank 3 (DE 7272) - Corrects a problem where using put/mput to transfer ASCII files in VMS-PLUS mode causes the output files to contain hundreds of blank trailing spaces. The problem was introduced in patch kit FTP_V55P010. ECO FTP_V553P030, Rank 3 (DE 7318) - Corrects a problem with renaming a file to a destination name containing wildcards (for example rename t.tmp to *.ok). The file would be renamed but the connection was dropped. ECO FTP_V553P030, Rank 3 (DE 7164) - Corrects a problem where the last record is sometimes missing when an image file of fixed length record is transferred. ECO FTP_V553P030, Rank 3 (DE 7331) - Corrects a problem with writing out RECORD (STRU R) files. ECO FTP_V553P010, Rank 3 (DE 6983) - Fill in the resultant file name when an error status is returned due to unsupported I/O operations. (e.g. attempting to RETR a a directory when in Unix mode) ECO FTP_V553P010, Rank 3 (DE 6987) FTP.EXE - The KEEPALIVE command allows the FTP client program to toggle whether or not it desires keepalives to be sent on the control channel. The SET [NO]KEEPALIVE command allows the FTP client to explicitly set whether or not it desires keepalives on the control channel. ECO FTP_V553P040, Rank 3 (DE 6875) After installing the patch kit you should do @TCPWARE:RESTART FTP to cause the new images to be used.

The value can be over-ridden via setsockopt. For transmits, packets larger than the SO_SNDBUF value won't be accepted for transmit. Looking at the driver source, it lloks like it is ignored for receives. Receives are governed however by UDPRECVLIMIT which can be set in NETCU with SET/SHOW UDPRECVLIMIT or on the START/UDP command. This will limit how many incoming datagrams are buffered before they are dropped if an application is not reading the datagrams. ================================================================================ Archive-Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 05:02:50 -0400 Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 11:02:13 +0200 From: Martin Vorlaender Reply-To: Info-TCPware@process.com Subject: TCPware 5.5 & CSWS 1.2 To: "TCPware Mailing List (E-Mail)" Message-ID: <877acedfa80c64850ab67e60f4ebd8bc3ceb5e2e@pdv-systeme.de> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi all, ever since having set up CSWS 1.0 I have observed that the web server becomes unresponsive now and then (once in three days up to a few times a day). No problem, I wrote a DCL/Perl script that probes the secondary addresses and restarts CSWS if it doesn't get a response. After installing CSWS 1.2 (including update 2.0) however, the intervals at which I have to do this have gone up to every 30 minutes! After reading that UCX has similar problems that had to do with the backlog queue, I set the BACKLOG_LIMIT to 4096. No change. My configuration is rather unusual in that this is a two-node cluster with a shared SCSI data disk (which holds the virtual sites as well as the CSWS log files). All virtual sites are IP based, with the IP addresses defined /CLUSTER. CSWS runs on both machines with the same configuration. Anyone has an idea what's happening, and how to cure it, or at least how to get an idea what is going wrong? Thanks in advance. cu, Martin ================================================================================ Archive-Date: Tue, 28 May 2002 07:01:04 -0400 Resent-Date: Tue, 28 May 2002 07:00:33 -0400 (EDT) Date: Tue, 28 May 2002 09:31:08 +0100 Resent-From: Geoff Bryant From: Kevin Phillip Reply-To: Info-TCPware@process.com Subject: Problems with TCPware FTP Resent-To: info-tcpware@lists.process.com To: "'info-tcpware@process.com'" Resent-Message-ID: <01KI93F9K3DG99ESNS@PROCESS.COM> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="Boundary_(ID_+Y1tCD6UQZWi9IdohKIA9w)" --Boundary_(ID_+Y1tCD6UQZWi9IdohKIA9w) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=us-ascii We have a 4 node cluster running OpenVMS.

All nodes are running TCPware 5.5-3. One of the nodes within the cluster is running TCPware FTP while the others are running MadGoat. The node running TCPware FTP hangs occasionally. I would say at least once a day. The process and logicals are there, but we are getting no activity when using FTP to connect to the node. The only solution we have found is to stop and restart FTP.
