Release Notes

* While uploading the kerberos key tab file to the DRAC 5 using racadm,

please validate the file before uploading. Currently, there is no

check performed for the validity of the key tab file.

* For Smart Card based authentication, currently, only Gem Alto

cryptographic smart cards and compatible cryptographic smart card

Service provider drivers are supported. Make sure that a

supported smart card is used for authentication.

* For Smart card and single sign on authentication, DRAC5 does not

support concurrent logins. If there is more than one user trying to

card Authentication, only one user will be authenticated. In this

situation, try the login again to authenticate and login into

DRAC 5.

* DRAC 5 currently does not support Windows 2008 Domain Controller as

supported Active Directory configuration for smart card Active

Directory authentication and single sign on Active Directory

authentication. Make sure that the domain controllers in the

Active Directory environment are either Windows 2003

or Windows 2000 Domain Controllers.

* User Configured Serial Console Redirection Key will only work with

telnet/ssh. It will not work with any serial connection based

terminal emulators like Hyperterminal, Putty or Minicom.

* For 64-bit Windows platforms, the DRAC5 Authentication plugin will

not get installed properly if a 64-bit version of "Microsoft Visual

C++ 2005 Redistributable Package" is deployed. Customers need to

deploy the 32 bit version of "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005

Redistributable Package" for the plug-in to install and run

properly.

* On a Windows Server 2003, you randomly receive the Stop 0x44 error

with blue screen when peroforming DRAC5 DUP update. Apply

the Microft Hot-fix as mentioned in

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942528 article.

* When Enhanced Security is enabled or installed in Windows(2003 or

XP) for IE hardening, IE may not be able to parse the XML which

may lead to DRAC GUI not working as desired. To fix this,

download security fixes and Microsoft fixes provided in the

Microsoft Website Microsoft XML Parser(MSXML) 3.0 SP5

* With Microsoft IE Enhanced Security Configuration, a pop-up message

appears when trying to connect to any website using IE6,

which resembles the following:

"Microsoft Internet Explorer's Enhanced Security Configuration is

currently enabled on your server. This enhanced level of security

reduces the risk of attack from Web-based content that is not

secure, but may also prevent web sites from displaying correctly

and restrict access to network resources."

This pop-up will have a checkbox "In the future do not show this

message".
