TITLE: CDFSDATE_V51 Tru64 V5.1 CDFS File System ECO Summary

PROBLEM STATEMENT:

A problem may be encountered with reading the creation date of a file
after the file is accessed from a CD-ROM using the cdfs file system. The
date may be incorrectly read from the CD-ROM. As a result of this incorrect
reading, a date such as 31-DEC-1969 may be displayed.

  ** NOTE: ** The stored creation date on the CD-ROM IS CORRECT. The
                  potential problem can only occur when the file is copied
                  or accessed from the CD-ROM.

SOLUTION:

There is a new, release-specific, version of /sys/BINARY/cdfs.mod which
addresses this potential problem. This patch will need to be installed on
all systems running Tru64 UNIX versions 4.0D, 4.0F, 4.0G, 5.0, 5.0A, and
5.1 and on cluster configurations.

The README contained within the tar file provides details on how to install
the patch.

The corrected version of the /sys/BINARY/cdfs.mod is built to be installed
on specific versions of the operating system. The table below provides the
patch kit name, and location for each Tru64 UNIX version:
