HP Tru64 UNIX Release Notes for Version 5.1B-4 (13157)
• version.abbrev_vendor from COMPAQ to HP
• version.banner from Compaq Tru64 UNIX to HP Tru64 UNIX
• version.vendor from Compaq Computer Corporation to Hewlett-Packard Company
The .mrg..sysconfigtab file has been modified to incorporate these changes into the generic
sysconfig subsystem in the /etc/sysconfigtab file.
If the rebranding of HP Tru64 UNIX version information impacts any applications or layered
products, you can manually change generic system version attributes. See the sysconfigtab(4) and
sys_attrs_generic(5) reference pages for more information on how to modify generic system version
attributes.
Error on Installing Japanese Advanced Printing Software Subsets
The following error messages are displayed when you install the IOSJPAPXBASE540 and
IOSJPAPXGUI540 subsets onto the system-installed APXBASE122 and APXGUI122 subsets:
Loading subset 1 of 2 ...
setld: Error installing Japanese Advanced Printing Software BASE and Client Commands
(IOSJPAPXBASE540)
This subset requires one or more additional subsets to operate correctly.
The following subsets are required:
"" (APXBASE120)
Please install required subsets first.
Loading subset 2 of 2 ...
setld: Error installing Japanese Advanced Printing Software Graphical User Interface
(IOSJPAPXGUI540)
This subset requires one or more additional subsets to operate correctly.
The following subsets are required:
"" (APXGUI120)
"Japanese Advanced Printing Software BASE and Client Commands" (IOSJPAPXBASE540)
Please install required subsets first.
These errors are caused by a dependency of the Japanese Advanced Printing Software subsets
on the corresponding original Advanced Printing Software subsets APXBASE120 and APXGUI120,
despite the changed subset names of APXBASE122 and APXGUI122 in APCD1 for the V5.1B-4
release.
You can avoid these errors by creating APXBASE120.lk and APXGUI120.lk files in the
/usr/.smdb. directory temporarily after installing APXBASE122 and APXGUI122 as following:
1. Log in as root and enter the following commands:
# cd /usr/.smdb.
# touch APXBASE120.lk APXGUI120.lk
2. Install the IOSJPAPXBASE540 and IOSJPAPXGUI540 subsets.
3. Remove APXBASE120.lk and APXGUI120.lk.
Authentication Choice Affects sftp Transfer Rate
The performance of secure FTP (sftp) will be always less than ftp due to the authentication
and encryption involved in sftp communication. The transfer rate of sftp depends on the type
of authentication it employs. You can achieve better transfer rate performance by choosing the
Message Authentication Code (MAC) algorithm hmac-md5 for authentication, but at the cost of
security. The default MAC is hmac-sha1, which is more secure than hmac-md5. See sftp(1) for
information about secure FTP and ssh2_config(4) for information about supported MACs and
ciphers.
Insight Manager Components Dump Core
Some Insight Manger components included in Tru64 UNIX Version 5.1B-4, such as cpq_mibs
and the config_hmmod and sysman_hmmod daemons, might core dump during reboots.
