68 iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition Release Notes • June 20, 2001
New password.conf Configuration File Information
Chapter 7, “Configuring Server Preferences,” in the iPlanet Web Server Administrator’s Guide has
been updated to include the new
password.conf configuration file. See the online version in the
product, or see Starting and Stopping the Server.
Error in nostat Description
In “Miscellaneous obj.conf Parameters” in Chapter 10, “Configuring the Server for Performance,” in
the iPlanet Web Server Administrator’s Guide, the section that describes the
nostat parameter
should read as follows:
For example:
<Object name=default>
...
NameTrans fn="assign-name" from="/nsfc" nostat="/nsfc" name="nsfc"
...
</Object>
<Object name="nsfc">
Service fn=service-nsfc-dump
</Object>
Problem 391661. Default Value for Size of DNS Cache Is Incorrect
The on-line help states that the default value for the size of the DNS cache is 1024 entries. However,
when you enable the DNS cache from the Performance Tuning page under the Preferences tab, you
see 512 displayed in the Size of DNS Cache field.
Error in RqThrottle Description
In the Performance, Tuning, Sizing, and Scaling Guide and in the “Tuning Your Server for
Performance” section of the Administrator’s Guide, in the section called “About RqThrottle,” it says
that you can set the timeout period in
obj.conf. That is not correct. Use the AcceptTimout
parameter in
magnus.conf to adjust this period.
