TITLE: Compaq TCP/IP TCPIPALP_E02A51 Compaq TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS V5.1 Summary
New Kit Date : 30-AUG-2001
Modification Date: Not Applicable
Modification Type: Updated Kit Supersedes DEC-AXPVMS-TCPIP_ECO-V0501-151-4.PCSI
NOTE: An OpenVMS saveset or PCSI installation file is stored
on the Internet in a self-expanding compressed file.
For OpenVMS savesets, the name of the compressed saveset
file will be kit_name.a-dcx_vaxexe for OpenVMS VAX or
kit_name.a-dcx_axpexe for OpenVMS Alpha. Once the OpenVMS
saveset is copied to your system, expand the compressed
saveset by typing RUN kitname.dcx_vaxexe or kitname.dcx_alpexe.
For PCSI files, once the PCSI file is copied to your system,
rename the PCSI file to kitname-dcx_axpexe.pcsi, then it can
be expanded by typing RUN kitname-dcx_axpexe.pcsi. The resultant
file will be the PCSI installation file which can be used to install
the ECO.

ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for TCP/IP V5.1 on OpenVMS Alpha V7.2-1 through
V7.3. This kit addresses the following problems:
PREVIOUSLY UNDOCUMENTED BEHAVIOR:
------------------------------------------------------------
1: PTR 30-7-49 Dependency for PPP on OpenVMS 7.2 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 and above install a patch for PPPDRIVER.
The OpenVMS PPPDriver patch for OpenVMS V7.2-1H1 is:
OpenVMS VMS721H1_PPPD-V0100 PPPDriver ALPHA 7.2-1H1 ECO
The readme can be viewed at:
http://ftp.support.compaq.com/patches/public/vms/axp/v7.2-1h1/
dec-axpvms-vms721h1_pppd-v0100--4.README
------------------------------------------------------------
2: PTR 70-5-1502/70-5-1518 Dependency on VMS Kits
------------------------------------------------------------
Problem:
1: 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.
2: In some cases the order of the recipients as entered by a
VMS mail user at the To: and/or Cc: prompts is not preserved
in the corresponding RFC headers.
3: When one composes a mail message in VMS mail and enters
multiple recipients all within the same SMTP%"" jacket any
recipient address that has no domain part, i.e. is a simple
user name, can be assigned the wrong domain by the SMTP
software.
Dependencies:
For this fix to be effective the following VMS kits must be
installed.
Alpha:
V7.2-1 VMS721_MAIL-V0100
V7.2-1h1 VMS21H1_MAIL-V0100
V7.3 VMS73_MAIL-V0100

ECO 1 updates
--------------
ECO A 10-MAR-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$CFS_SHR.EXE V5.1-15A
Problem:
NFS problem with file aliases where certain file aliases created
on the VMS side are only partly visable on Unix.
Solution:
Treat all file aliases to directories as directories when
MODUS_OPERANDI bit 16384 is set.
Reference:
PTR 70-8-42
ECO 2 updates
--------------
ECO B 30-MAR-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$CFS_SHR.EXE V5.1-15B
Problem:
For file systems exported with /options=Name_Conversion,
any particularly long filename can map to the VMS file ".;"
which can be disconcerting and confusing.
Solution:
Properly detect when NonVMS-to-VMS name conversion fails and
report this as an appropriate error back to the client (e.g.
NAMETOOLONG). NonVMS filenames that cannot be converted into
a legal VMS ODS-2 filename can only be accommodated within a
Container File System.

ECO A 10-MAR-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$IPC_SHR.EXE V5.1-15A
Problem:
The dynamic updates being sent by the load broker to a
Windows2000 DNS server were failing with an error similiar to:
unknown response: ans=0, auth=1, add=1, rcode=3
Solution:
Modify the check on the response packet from an SOA query to accept
packets that have an empty answer section, auth=1, and add=1.
Reference:
PTR 70-5-1572 / CFS.80807 / Req Id: BE_G01053
ECO B 16-MAR-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$IPC_SHR.EXE V5.1-15B
Problem:
FTP, telnet, and possibly others were failing with 'unexpected
nameserver error' when trying to connect to a host that had an
underscore in the host name.
Solution:
Loosen the restriction on the host name checking. The resolver now
uses a different routine to process host names. This routine verifies
against a larger character set which includes underscores, et al.
NOTE:
In order for hostnames containing underscores to be allowed using
applications such as TELNET and FTP, the following line must be
added to the options section of your BIND servers' TCPIP$BIND.CONF
configuration file:
check-names master ignore;
for example:
options {
directory "SYS$SPECIFIC:[TCPIP$BIND]";
check-names master ignore;
};

--------------
ECO C 30-APR-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$IPC_SHR.EXE V5.1-15C
TCPIP$NSLOOKUP.EXE V5.1-15B
Problem:
Both nslookup and SH HOST would exit prematurely if the server
timed out. They would not exhaust all elements of their search
path list.
Solution:
The resolver will keep trying elements of the search list
until either it gets an answer or the list is exhausted.
Reference:
TCPIP_BUGS Note 2213
TCPIP_BUGS Note 1324
ECO D 9-MAY-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$IPC_SHR.EXE V5.1-15D
Problem:
Applications such as telnet were getting a BIND error when
attempting to use IP addresses if the BIND resolver was disabled
and the address did not exist in the LOCAL host db.
Solution:
Add a call to res$$fakeaddr() in the TCPIP$GETIPNODEBYNAME()
routine in the IPC layer. This will check to see if what we were
passed was an IP address and perform any required formatting to it
before passing it back. Now we pass back the address in the
hostent instead of an empty hostent and an error.
Release Note:
In V5.1, applications may have experienced errors when using IP
addresses if the BIND resolver had not been enabled and the address
had not been defined in the LOCAL host database. This problem
has been fixed.

Solution:
No longer use the sending of a packet method to start the BIND
server. Instead, incorporate the TCPIP$BIND_STARTUP/SHUTDOWN
command procedures to do the job.

Images:
TCPIP$DNFSACP.EXE V5.1-15B
Problem:
The NFS client does not send a set attribute to the server after
writing a file that is the same size or smaller, letting it default
to 512 bytes. Initial fix attempt caused a data corruption
regression.
Solution:
Send a setattr procedure to set the size after the re-write,
being careful not to confuse this situation with the one that
led to file corruption. Also, backported V5.1 change so the
NFS client now reports the correct allocated size instead of
the EOF mark.

TCPIP$MSG.EXE V5.1-16C
Problem:
For file larger than 4 GB, the FTP Client incorrectly reports the
number of bytes transferred. The Kbytes/sec rate reported is also
incorrect.
Solution:
The bytes transferred count is now maintained using an extended
precision representation (64-bit long long on Alpha, two 32-bit
longword array on VAX). The Kbytes/sec rate is now calculated
using double floating-point precision.
Also took this opportunity to include an estimate of a
sequential or fixed-length file's byte length in the
"150 Opening data connection for..." message.
Unix servers do this and it gives a GUI FTP client something
to use for progress bars or %complete screen updates.
Note this size is not 100% accurate due to file conversion
that might occur for the transfer.

"550 file not found" or "550 unsupported file structure level"
when the search-list-logical is composed of concealed members.
Problem only occurs when file details are requested from the
server, and not when just filenames are requested.
Solution:
Modified the FTP server to better detect the transition from
one concealed device entry to another within a search-list-
logical's SYS$SEARCH() results, so it has the proper device
open for obtaining the requested file details.

process will now log session info, requests, and responses
in its SYS$LOGIN:TCPIP$FTP_SERVER.LOG file if the logical
TCPIP$FTPD_LOG_CLIENT_ACTIVITY is defined.
This logical can be defined on a system-wide basis by an
administrator (so all users' FTP session logs include
extended logging), or by a user within their LOGIN.COM
file (so just that user's FTP session logs include
extended logging).

TCPIP$IPC_SHR.EXE V5.1-1D
Problem:
Applications such as telnet were getting a BIND error when
attempting to use IP addresses if the BIND resolver was disabled
and the address did not exist in the LOCAL host db.
Solution:
Add a call to res$$fakeaddr() in the TCPIP$GETIPNODEBYNAME()
routine in the IPC layer. This will check to see if what we were
passed was an IP address and perform any required formatting to it
before passing it back. Now we pass back the address in the
hostent instead of an empty hostent and an error.
Release Note:
In V5.1, applications may have experienced errors when using IP
addresses if the BIND resolver had not been enabled and the address
had not been defined in the LOCAL host database. This problem
has been fixed.

comment is longer than 77 characters, the PRINTCAP.DAT file can
be corrupted with an overlong comment line and several lines that
should be comments but aren't prefixed by the comment character

corrupted entry.
Solution:
When adding a comment via LPRSETUP, automatically wrap comment
lines that are greater than 77 characters onto the next line(s).

TCPIP$MSG.EXE V5.1-16C
Problem:
For file larger than 4 GB, the FTP Client incorrectly reports the
number of bytes transferred. The Kbytes/sec rate reported is also
incorrect.
Solution:
The bytes transferred count is now maintained using an extended
precision representation (64-bit long long on Alpha, two 32-bit
longword array on VAX). The Kbytes/sec rate is now calculated
using double floating-point precision.
Also took this opportunity to include an estimate of a
sequential or fixed-length file's byte length in the
"150 Opening data connection for..." message.
Unix servers do this and it gives a GUI FTP client something
to use for progress bars or %complete screen updates.
Note this size is not 100% accurate due to file conversion
that might occur for the transfer.

TCPIP$INTERNET_SERVICES.EXE V5.1-15E
Problem:
Oracle Parallel Server does not work with TCPIP V5.1. The problem
arises in a select() call which is aborted due to receipt of a
signal. In reality we had two problems. First, in some
circumstance select() was returning the wrong status code, SS$_SHUT
rather than SS$_CANCEL. Second, if the select abort occurred in a
very small window of time, there was a danger of an incorrect value
being left in a UCB field and this incorrect value would lead to
select() failing forever more within the context of the current
process.
Solution:
The solution to the first problem is to simply change the returned
status code so that the caller is satisfied. The solution to the
second problem is to clear the offending field when a select is
aborted.

Problem:
The sysconfig logic implemented in common_cfg.c
does not pay attention to the type of operation and
treat CFG_OP_RECONFIGURE as CFG_OP_CONFIGURE.
This can lead to crashes (see note 2162.0)
Solution:
common_cfg.c is a VMS specific file. (distant cousin
of UNIX cfg related files.)
This file was missing the check for reconfigure.
I incorporated the check done in UNIX in common_cfg.c
Note: Under UNIX the logic is implemented in the kern_kmodcall.c
for the local system with support logic in subsys_conf.c
and cfg_subr.c for remote.

Solution:
When IPv6 is enabled for a service, such as telnet,
the sockaddrs for incoming connections are always
IPv6 sockaddrs even when the incoming connection
came from an IPv4 host. In this case ths sockaddr
will contain an IPv4 mapped address in the IPv6

Problem:
System crash, INVEXCEPTN. The direct cause of the crash is
the routine KVCI$$RECEIVE that is called directly from the
TNDRIVER. The crash occurs because between the notification
of an event on the socket and the call to KVCI$$RECEIVE, a
pointer to the socket structure has been zeroed.
Solution:
Modified KVCI$$RECEIVE() to validate the pointer before use.
Also modified inet_sbwakeup() to guard against a zero in the
SO$L_UCB field.

Note: even though both NET and TELNET_SERVER images are
affected by this set of changes, the two images are NOT
fatally interdependent. Either can safely be shipped to
a customer running older version of the other image;
they just won't get the new XON_ANY_CHAR functionality.
Problem:
70-5-1601:
Telnet client or user was sending ^S XOFF stopping output,
and not following up with a ^Q XON to restart output. This
can lead to a situation where the Telnet server doesn't
detect when client has closed, leaving the TNA device active
and the user process logged in. Only remedy required system
administrator to manually $STOP the affected process.
70-5-1602 & 70-5-1261:
The TNDRIVER crashed due to unexpected recursion resulting
in the same packet being freed twice.
Solution:
70-5-1601:
Telnet server no longer ignores socket events like
closure when unable to pass any further data up to
the TT driver or application because input is disabled
(either due to Typeahead buffer being full or use of
ReadSync terminal characteristic).
Furthermore, to help deal with defective Telnet client
or inattentive user that sends ^S XOFF but doesn't
follow up with ^Q XON, an implicit ^Q XON will occur
upon receipt of any character (not just ^Q) from the
client if the system logical TCPIP$TELNET_XON_ANY_CHAR
is defined as "1". A similar logical has also been
provided for rlogin service: TCPIP$RLOGIN_XON_ANY_CHAR.
70-5-1602 & 70-5-1261:
Prevent unexpected recursion and let original call complete
processing of the packet.

TCPIP$ROUTED.EXE V5.1-15A
Problem:
This problem occurs when the supply option is enabled for
routed. This option is to supply its own Internet addresses
to routing requests made from remote hosts. The RIP's that
are sent to these remote hosts do not have the right packet
format. Thus, this caused all the listeners of RIP to
reject these packets.
Solution:
The fix is to change the outgoing packets to the correct
RIP v1 format. The change would be to set the sa_len field to 0.
Thus have the correct RIP v1 format which would then be accepted
by remote hosts.

Problem:
Access Violation occurs in MAILSHR when an attempt is made

Solution:
Bugs were identified in both VMSMail and SMTP which both
conspired to cause these ACCVIOs on Alpha (and other errant
behavior on VAX). In VMSmail, its RMS error AST routine was
fixed to include correct VMSmail context when LIB$SIGNALing
the error which SMTP was reporting via the MAIL$PROTOCOL
interface. Contact VMS Support regarding availability of
this patch.
In SMTP, don't always trust the longest-record-length file
attribute, establishing a minimum 1000-byte buffer for reading
mail files, and don't resignal RMS$_RTB to the MAILSHR condition
handler directly from SMTP.

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

2:
In some cases the order of the recipients as entered by a VMS mail

When one composes a mail message in VMS mail and enters multiple
recipients all within the same SMTP%"" jacket any recipient address
that has no domain part, i.e. is a simple user name, can be

Solution:
1: Add a new function code for "Address from Cc prompt"

with 240 characters of data), the master agent returns a malformed
packet to the subagent, which can cause the subagent to restart.
Also various incorrect error messages were getting generated.
Solution:
The master agent was sending a malformed AgentX response packet
back to the subagent after a notification request. The subagent
detected this packet, which caused a restart; not all subagents are
necessarily coded to detect such packets, so such and error might
not cause a restart. The fixed master agent sends a properly
formatted packet; also, error and warning messages are improved.

fatally interdependent. Either can safely be shipped to
a customer running older version of the other image;
they just won't get the new XON_ANY_CHAR functionality.
Problem:
70-5-1601:
Telnet client or user was sending ^S XOFF stopping output,
and not following up with a ^Q XON to restart output. This
can lead to a situation where the Telnet server doesn't
detect when client has closed, leaving the TNA device active
and the user process logged in. Only remedy required system
administrator to manually $STOP the affected process.
70-5-1602 & 70-5-1261:
The TNDRIVER crashed due to unexpected recursion resulting
in the same packet being freed twice.
Solution:
70-5-1601:
Telnet server no longer ignores socket events like
closure when unable to pass any further data up to
the TT driver or application because input is disabled
(either due to Typeahead buffer being full or use of
ReadSync terminal characteristic).
Furthermore, to help deal with defective Telnet client
or inattentive user that sends ^S XOFF but doesn't
follow up with ^Q XON, an implicit ^Q XON will occur
upon receipt of any character (not just ^Q) from the
client if the system logical TCPIP$TELNET_XON_ANY_CHAR
is defined as "1". A similar logical has also been
provided for rlogin service: TCPIP$RLOGIN_XON_ANY_CHAR.

$ tcpip set arp 10.11.1.101 0:0:f8:25:39:a8
%TCPIP-E-ARPERROR, cannot process ARP request as entered; see ARP
documentation and reissue the command
-TCPIP-E-INVPARM, invalid parameter value for Ethernet address
-TCPIP-E-INVETHER, invalid Ethernet address: !AS
Solution:
Modified tcpipcp$set_arp routine (in tcpipcp$arp.b32) to:
1. Correctly report errors with SET ARP's 'mac_address' parameter
2. Correctly report errors with SET ARP's 'host' parameter

TCPIP$UCP.EXE V5.1-15H
Problem:
The following error is encountered when one attempts to
remove proxies:
%TCPIP-E-PROXYERROR, error processing proxy request
-TCPIP-W-NORECORD, information not found
-TCPIP-E-INVKEY, invalid information
Solution:
Due to some incorrect comments in the code (bad cut and paste)
when the special case code was added in order to request a proxy
with a wildcarded host name - basically - the code for the ADD
proxy operation was used. And so, a hostent was being specified
for the host's name instead of a descriptor to that name.

TCPIP$MSG.EXE V5.1-15B
TCPIP$UCP.EXE V5.1-15I
Problem:
UCP's LOAD PROXY command generates error messages if there are no
proxy records in the proxy database.
For example,
$ tcpip load proxy
%TCPIP-E-PROXYERROR, error processing proxy request
-TCPIP-W-NORECORD, information not found
-RMS-E-RNF, record not found
%TCPIP-E-PROXYERROR, error processing proxy request
-TCPIP-W-NORECORD, information not found
-RMS-E-RNF, record not found
Solution:
UCP Changes:
1. Modified routine TCPIPCP$LOAD_NFS_PROXY (in TCPIPCP$PROXY.B32)
to correctly load nfs proxy records; enhanced
TCPIPCP$LOAD_NFS_PROXY to signal the number and type (i.e. NFS)
of proxy records loaded.
MSG Changes:
1. Added PROXYLOADED informational message for UCP.
INSTALL Changes:
1. Modified TCPIP$PROXY_STARTUP.COM and TCPIP$PROXY_SHUTDOWN.COM as
follows:
a. correct text of module abstract
b. event logs for loading communication and nfs proxies

ECO K 15-MAY-2001 Alpha and VAX
Images:
TCPIP$UCP.EXE V5.1-15K
Problem:
1. UCP's SET CONFIGURATION ENABLE SERVICE command generates an
error whenever a service is attempted to be enabled (added to the
enable service list) that is already enabled.
2. UCP's SET CONFIGURATION ENABLE NOSERVICE * command fails to
disable all enabled services when the "service" parameter is
wildcarded. It stops after disabling just one service.
3. UCP's SET CONFIGURATION ENABLE NOSERVICE command outputs
misleading error messages whenever a service is attempted to be
disabled that is already disabled.
Solution:
Modified routines tcpipcp$set_conf_serv and tcpipcp$$add_serv_list
(in module tcpipcp$service.b32) to fix error handling to not report
an error when enabling a service that's already enabled.
Modified routines tcpipcp$del_conf_serv and tcpipcp$$del_serv_list
(in module tcpipcp$service.b32) to permit disabling all "enabled"
services when the SERVICE parameter is wildcarded. Also, fixed
error reporting when disabling a service that's already disabled.

For example,
a. unable to find a string when search is used in a command pipeline:
$ pipe tcpip show configuration smtp | search sys$input gateway
%SEARCH-I-NOMATCHES, no strings matched
b. fatal error sometimes results when used in a command pipeline:
$ pipe tcpip show configuration smtp | search sys$input a
%TCPIP-E-TCPIPDISPLAY, error displaying information
-TCPIP-F-BUGCHK, TCPIP internal error
-RMS-F-SYS, QIO system service request failed
