1.8 New Cluster Command Sends ping Packets over TCP
A new TruCluster Server command, clu_ping, sends ping packages over the TCP layer rather
than the Internode Communication Subsystem (ICS) layer on clusters with LAN as the
interconnect. By default, ping packets are sent over the ICS layer.
For information about using this command, see the clu_ping(8) delivered in this kit.
1.9 sendmail Server Updated to Version 8.13.6
The sendmail server has been updated from Version 8.11.1 to Version 8.13.6. Key changes to
the sendmail configuration file (sendmail.cf) include the following:
• The local mailer program, bin/mail, has been changed to /usr/sbin/mail.local
• The default database format has been changed from dbm to btree
• An additional security option has been added to the imap deliver program
• The IPC Mailer argument has been changed to TCP
The Version 8.13.6 sendmail server provides advanced features, including the following:
• Masquerading
• Virtual domain hosting
• Restricted relaying
• Milter functionality
NOTE: These features can be configured only with the sendmail provided with the HP Tru64
Internet Express Software distribution.
A new account, smmsp, is created as part of the sendmail installation process. This account is
required for future enhancements of sendmail.
You can find information about sendmail Version 8.13.6 as follows:
• The sendmail.org Web site: http://sendmail.org/.
• The sendmail documentation provided with the HP Tru64 Internet Express Software
distribution.
• The book Sendmail by Bryan Costales and Eric Allman, published by O'Reilly & Associates,
Inc.
The sendmail v8.13.6 reference pages were not updated in this release.
1.10 AdvFS Utilities Improved for Working with Metadata Files
The AdvFS vods utilities (nvbmtpg, nvlogpg, nvtagpg, nvfragpg, and vsbmpg) have been
improved and enhanced to make them more useful when working with AdvFS metadata files.
New options have been added and some existing options have been improved. Review the
revised reference pages included in this kit before using these enhanced tools.
1.11 mountd Daemon Gets New Port-Selection Option
A new option to the mountd daemon lets you specify a port number for mountd to bind to.
Currently, when mountd starts it takes an arbitrary port number, which is different every time
you boot your system. As a result, some applications may fail because the port number for the
applications are defined in /etc/services and mountd may use one of them.
