This document provides installation instructions, new feature descriptions, and release notes for Unixware 7.1.3 Update Pack 2. Complete UnixWare documentation is available on SCO Web Site under Documentation and Support. Your UnixWare system serves the UnixWare documentation set, including manual pages, on http://hostname:8458 (where hostname is the network name or IP address of the UnixWare system).
There are two support "tracks" for UnixWare 7.1.3:
A Maintenance Pack (MP) is a collection of fixes for reported problems distributed as a single installable package. Maintenance Packs are made available periodically when such fixes are available, and can be downloaded and installed free of charge. Maintenance Packs are cumulative, so only the latest one needs to be installed. If installed individually, they must be installed in the order they are issued (i.e., MP1, MP2, etc.). A Maintenance Pack typically is accompanied by a single text file with installation instructions and release notes.
It is important to note that a Maintenance Pack cannot be installed onto a system that already has an Update Pack installed. This restriction ensures the integrity of the software installed on your system.
An Update Pack (UP) is a collection of features, enhancements, and problem fixes distributed as a single package or set, plus additional packages. Update Packs are made available quarterly (for a licensing fee) to registered customers of the SCO Update Service. Individual package and set images, as well as a CD image with all packages and sets included, are published on the Update Service download site. Update Packs are cumulative, and include all current Maintenance Packs, so only the latest Update Pack needs to be installed. If installed individually, they must be installed in the order they are issued (i.e., UP1, UP2, etc.). The online documentation, both DocView guides and traditional manual pages, is also updated with descriptions of new features and fixes.
In general, Update Packs can be installed on top of previously issued Maintenance Packs. Each Update Pack comes with full documentation, including installation and release notes (like the document you are reading now), that explain the target system requirements.
If you already have one or more Maintenance Packs installed, you can switch over to the UP track by installing an Update Pack with the same or later number. For example, If you have Maintenance Pack 2 installed, you can switch over to the UP track by installing Update Pack 2 or later.
If you are an Update Pack customer and want to switch over to the MP track, you must first remove all Update Packs installed on your system (in the reverse order they were installed), and then install the latest Maintenance Pack. For example, if you loaded UP1 and then UP2 onto your system, and want to switch over to the MP track, remove UP2 and then UP1 from the system. Once the Update Packs are removed, install the latest available Maintenance Pack.
Release 7.1.3 Maintenance Packs and Update Packs are available from the UnixWare 7.1.3 Supplements Web Page.
Update Pack 2 can be installed only on a Release 7.1.3 system with one of the following software configurations (MP means "Maintenance Pack" in the following table, UP means "Update Pack"):
| Supported Configurations for Installing Update Pack 2 |
|---|
| UnixWare 7.1.3 (no MPs or UPs) |
| UnixWare 7.1.3 + MP1 |
| UnixWare 7.1.3 + MP1 + MP2 |
| UnixWare 7.1.3 + MP2 |
| UnixWare 7.1.3 + MP1 + UP1 |
| UnixWare 7.1.3 + UP1 |
As shown, Update Pack 2 can only be installed on top of previously issued Maintenance Packs and Update Packs. For example, you must remove any Maintenance Pack later than MP2 using pkgrm(1M) before installing Update Pack 2. Use the pkginfo(1M) command or the scoadmin application installer to check your current software configuration.
Please Note: If you install Update Pack 2 on a system with MP1 or MP2 (or both) already installed, do not attempt to remove MP1 or MP2 from the system after installing UP2. This will lead to unexpected system behavior.
Update Pack 2 is available to customers who have registered their copy of Release 7.1.3 at the SCO Update Service Registration web site. Once registered, you can download Update Pack 2 as instructed in the registration letter you receive via email, as either separate package datastream images or a single CD-ROM ISO image. The ISO image can be written to a CD-ROM using any Windows or Unix CD recording software, such as cdrtools on UnixWare. The ISO image file can also be mounted directly without being written to a CD, as shown in the procedure below. Customers can also register to receive Update Packs on CD-ROM directly from SCO. For more information, please go to the UnixWare 7.1.3 Supplements Web Page.
A registered SCO Update Service (SUS) Enabling license is required to install the Update Pack Set. If you attempt to install the uw713up2 set on a system that does not have a registered SUS license, the installation will fail.
An SUS Enabling license can be purchased when you order Release 7.1.3 as part of your License Edition (e.g., Base, Departmental, Enterprise, etc.). It can also be purchased separately. Contact your software supplier if you do not have an SUS license.
To check your current licenses, launch the SCOadmin License Manager from the graphical desktop, or from the command line (as root):
scoadmin license
The License Manager's main screen displays the currently installed licenses. One of these should mention the SCO Update Service. If you do have a SCO Update Service license installed, it must also have a "Y" in the Registered? column, in order to install the Update Pack Set.
The entire process of installing licenses on your system and registering your SCO Update Service license is described in the online documentation under Installation and Licensing>Getting Started Guide>CD Contents, Licensing, Installation Profiles, and Support. The Getting Started Guide is also available on the UnixWare Doc Web Page.

You can install the Update Pack from a single CD ISO image, or from separate package images (see Obtaining Update Pack 2).
Please see the section Known Problems and Workarounds before beginning installation of the Update Pack.
The procedure below shows you how to install the Update Pack using the Upgrade Wizard, from either a mounted ISO CD image, or from a CD to which the ISO image has been written.
NOTE:
You must install the uw713up2 set before installing
any of the other packages available with Update Pack 2.
This is done automatically by the Upgrade Wizard.
If you are applying the Update Pack to a newly installed or upgraded Release 7.1.3
system, be sure to reboot the system after the Release 7.1.3 installation or upgrade
is complete and before you apply Update Pack 2.
Log into the system as root.
Do one of the following:
If you have a CD with the Update Pack image on it, insert the CD into the primary CD drive and go to the next step.
# marry -a /var/spool/pkg/uw713up2CDimage.iso /dev/marry/var/spool/pkg/uw713up2CDimage.iso # mount /dev/marry/var/spool/pkg/uw713up2CDimage.iso /install
Install the uli (Upgrade Wizard) package from the CD. Use either the SCOadmin Application Installer from the graphical desktop, or the following command line:
# pkgadd -d device uli
where device is cdrom1 if you followed Step 2a; or, /install if you followed Step 2b.
Once the uli package is installed, launch the Upgrade Wizard. Do one of the following:
# uli
# uli -f device
where device is the name of the directory where you mounted the ISO image in Step 2b (/install in the example).
When the Upgrade Wizard starts, a screen displays a message that the Upgrade Wizard will install the Update Pack software. Select Next to continue.
The Upgrade Wizard displays the Software License Agreement. Select Accept to continue.
If you followed Step 4a and used the uli command with no options, skip to the next step.
Otherwise, if you followed Step 4b and used uli -f, a screen is displayed that lists the primary CD drive and the directory you specified, with the directory selected as the default installation device. Select Next to continue and install from the directory.
The Wizard checks the contents of the installation device for the Update Pack. Select Next to continue and begin installing the Update Pack.
The Upgrade Wizard automatically installs the Update Pack Set (see the CD Contents), displaying installation messages in a new window.
When the Upgrade Wizard finishes installing the Update Pack Set, it displays the Package Selection List, a list of the additional packages on the CD that are not installed automatically by the Update Pack Set. If the Wizard detects previous versions of any of the Update Pack CD packages on your system, the updated version on the CD appears in the Chosen Packages list on the right. Use the Remove button to move packages that you don't want to install from the Chosen Packages list to the Available Packages list. Any packages that remain in the Available Packages list will not be installed.
NOTE: Some packages on the CD may not be
presented in the Package Selection List.
This happens when the Upgrade Wizard does not find a previous version of the package
on your system.
In order to install such a package using the Upgrade Wizard, you need to first install the package from the
original UnixWare 7.1.3 media used to install the system (along with any prerequisite packages).
After you are done installing software with the Upgrade Wizard, see the section
Installing Additional Packages after the Update Pack Set
and use pkgadd(1M) instead of the Upgrade Wizard to install the Update Pack 2 version of
any package not listed for selection by the Upgrade Wizard.
If a package installation fails because a prerequisite package was not found, you will first need
to install the prerequisite package from Update Pack 2 or the original UnixWare 7.1.3 media.
When you are finished choosing packages, select Next to continue.
A summary of your package selections and the space they require on your hard disk is displayed. Select Next to confirm your selections and continue. Select Previous to go back to the previous step and change the Package Selection List.
After you confirm your package selections, the Upgrade Wizard installs the packages you selected. It displays a progress bar as each package is installed. When the Wizard is done, select Finish to exit.
If you followed Step 1a, go to the next step.
Otherwise, if you followed Step 1b, unmount the CD image and delete the marry device:
# umount /install # marry -d /dev/marry/var/spool/pkg/uw713up2CDimage.iso
Reboot your system to rebuild the kernel. From the Desktop, use the SCOadmin Shutdown Manager. From the command line, enter the following:
# shutdown -i6 -g0 -y
When the system comes back up, you can log in and check the installation as shown in the section Checking Update Pack Installation.
If you decide that you want to add additional packages from the Update Pack CD, see the section Installing Additional Packages after the Update Pack Set.
Separate images for the Update Set and all available packages on the CD (e.g., uw713up2.image, nd.image, etc.) are available on the SCO Update Service download site. These are in datastream format and must be installed using the pkgadd command. Follow this procedure to install the images you download.
NOTE:
You must install the uw713up2 set before installing
any of the other packages available with Update Pack 2.
If you are applying the Update Pack to a newly installed or upgraded Release 7.1.3
system, be sure to reboot the system after the Release 7.1.3 installation or upgrade
is complete and before you apply any Update Packs.
Download the set and package images from the SCO Update Service, and place them in /var/spool/pkg (or any other directory that has enough free space to accommodate the images).
Enter the following to install the update set:
# pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/uw713up2.image all
Enter the following command for each additional package image:
# pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/imagename all
Reboot your system to rebuild the kernel. From the Desktop, use the SCOadmin Shutdown Manager. From the command line, enter the following:
# shutdown -i6 -g0 -y
When the system comes back up, you can log in and check the installation as shown in the section Checking Update Pack 2 Installation.
After you have installed the Update Pack 2 Set (uw713up2) and rebooted your system, you can use either the Upgrade Wizard or the pkgadd(1M) command to install any packages that you did not select when you installed the Set. The two following sections show you how to install additional packages using either the package images found on the SCO Update Service Download Site, or the packages on the Update Pack CD image.
If any desired package cannot be installed because a prerequisite package was not found, install the prerequisite package (either from the Update Pack or the original UnixWare 7.1.3 media), and then attempt to install the desired package again.
Using the Upgrade Wizard will re-install the Update Set (uw713up2) automatically before installing additional packages. Use the pkgadd command if you want to:
Use the Upgrade Wizard:
Follow the
Installation Procedure, omitting Step 3.
OR
Use the pkgadd command:
Follow Steps 1 and 2 of the
Installation Procedure, and then enter the following:
# pkgadd -d device package...
The device is cdrom1 if you followed Step 2a; or, /install if you followed Step 2b. Replace package with the names of one or more packages on the CD (see CD Contents). This example installs the nd and nics packages from a mounted ISO image file:
# pkgadd -d /install nd nics
Separate images for the Update Set and all available packages on the CD (e.g., uw713up2.image, nd.image, etc.) are available on the SCO Update Service download site. These are in datastream format and must be installed using the pkgadd command. Follow this procedure to install the images you download.
Download the package images from the SCO Update Service, and place them in /var/spool/pkg (or any other directory that has enough free space to accommodate the images).
Enter the following command for each package image:
# pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/imagename all
Reboot your system to rebuild the kernel. From the Desktop, use the SCOadmin Shutdown Manager. From the command line, enter the following:
# shutdown -i6 -g0 -y
When the system comes back up, you can log in and check the installation as shown in the section Checking Update Pack 2 Installation.
Once installed, use the following command to confirm that the uw713up2 set has completely installed. The system should respond with output similar to that shown in the example below:
# pkginfo -lc set uw713up2
PKGINST: uw713up2
NAME: UnixWare 7 Release 7.1.3 Update Pack 2
...
STATUS: completely installed
If the STATUS field indicates anything other than
completely installed,
there was some problem during installation of the set.
Re-install the set and record any error messages displayed.
Then, check the Late News
and Support web sites to check for
additional Update Pack 1 notes.
To check the installation of other packages, use a command like the following:
pkginfo -l xdrivers
Update Pack 2 contained all the new features listed below, as well as the new features from Update Pack 1.
The features listed in this section are installed with the Update Pack Set. See the Installation Procedures section for how to install the Update Pack Set.
Previously, the system calls shmget(2), msgget(2), and semget(2) returned 32-bit InterProcess Communication (IPC) IDs for shared resources under UnixWare. OpenServer and Xenix applications, however, expect IPC IDs that are positive, signed 16-bit numbers.
A new flag, IPC_SMALLID, may be passed in to the IPC routines listed above.
If this flag is passed in, then, on success, the invoked function returns a 16-bit IPC ID.
Otherwise, a 32-bit IPC ID is returned.
The IPC_SMALLID flag is introduced for use in cases in which a native
UnixWare application requires a small IPC ID in order to share the ID and
associated object with OpenServer or Xenix applications.
For example, the Xenix emulator included with the OpenServer Kernel Personality (OKP) product
uses IPC_SMALLID for every IPC ID it requests, so Xenix
applications can use IPC as expected.
In addition to the IPC_SMALLID flag, three new tunables are also available for cases where the entire system
must be tuned to return 16-bit IPC IDs to support OpenServer and Xenix applications.
These tunables are SHMSMALLID, MSGSMALLID, and SEMSMALLID, and they affect
the return values of shmget(2), msgget(2), and semget(2), respectively.
Each has a default value of 0, and a range of values of 0 to 1.
Each tunable controls whether the corresponding IPC system call returns a 16-bit ID by default.
If the tunable is set to 0 (the default), then the corresponding routine always returns a
32-bit ID; if the tunable is set to 1, then the corresponding routine always returns a 16-bit ID.
The kernel has been modified to always return 16-bit IPC IDs to a running application that it recognizes as an OpenServer or Xenix executable, regardless of the setting of the above tuneables.
The dtlogin(X1) daemon has been enhanced to save the desktop chosen when a user logs in. The next time the same user logs in, the previously used desktop will be launched, unless the user chooses another from the Desktop menu on the Graphical Login screen.
Two new keywords that control this feature can be specified in the file /etc/default/login:
SAVEUSERGUIDEFAULTWINDOWMANAGERDEFAULTWINDOWMANAGER is used.Once a user has logged into a graphical desktop, the dtlogin menu Options > Session will display the following choices:
[Last Desktop Session Selected] Common Desktop Environment (CDE) and UNIX Personality Panorama Session and UNIX Personality KDE2 and Linux Personality (LKP) Failsafe Session
(If you do not have LKP installed, the entry "KDE2 and Linux Personality (LKP)" will not be displayed.)
Your default window manager is either the system default window manager
(DEFAULTWINDOWMANAGER) as specified in /etc/default/login or the window
manager you previously selected from the Options > Session menu.
You can change your personal default window manager by selecting a new
window manager from the Options > Session menu.
Your personal default window manager overrides the system default window
manager unless SAVEUSERGUI is set to NO.
The SCOadmin Filesystems Manager has been moved from the main SCOadmin screen (started from the CDE or Panorama Desktop menus, or from the command line with the scoadmin command), to a new Storage folder. The Storage folder also contains the new Disk, Partition, and Slice Managers, described below.
The asy and asyc drivers (see the asyc(7) manual page) are now configured by default to support up to ten total serial ports. The ports are named following the conventions described in the section Hardware > Configuring Serial Ports > Serial device node naming conventions in the online documentation. The drivers now support 16654 UARTS on the motherboard, as well as Digi Classicboard and Connecttech Blue Heat PCI cards.
PCI devices honor the resmgr entries created or modified by dcu(1M). Note that only scanned (i.e. not PCI) devices may be used for kdb(1M) or console devices.
For more information on the ConnecTech and Digi boards mentioned above, see
the respective companies' web sites:
http://www.dgii.com/products/multiport%20serial%20cards/classicboard.jsp
http://www.connecttech.com/sub/Products/ProductList.asp
The DNS Manager (scoadmin dns) has been updated with the following fixes and enhancements:
The DNS Manager will launch only one server deamon. In previous releases, the DNS Manager would invoke another DNS server when the Manager was started or terminated.
Enhanced the Manager so that it does not remove configuration and zone data file information entered by other mechanisms (e.g., vi(1) or h2n(1M)). This was a problem in earlier releases.
Enhanced h2n(1M) so that it will work properly with files created or edited by the DNS Manager (e.g., uses the same conventions, such as zone data file names). In previous releases, you could not use both tools on the same set of files.
The Server pull down menu now adds options reliably to the current configuration. The DNS configuration file it produces is validated with the named-checkconf utility. It also cleans up appropriately when configuration options and statements are removed.
Add and Modify Zones commands for the Primary server type have been improved:
The System V LP printing subsystem has been enhanced to allow a maximum of 999 print jobs per printer, or class of printers. In previous releases, only 999 print jobs for the entire system were permitted.
By default, privileged processes (i.e., processes running as root) do not dump core files, to prevent
unprivileged access to sensitive data that may be contained in the core file.
(See the core(4) manual page for a description of core files.)
A new tunable parameter (COREFILE_SECURE) has been introduced that, if set in the current environment of a
privileged process, allows the process to dump a core file when a program exception occurs.
Such core files should be protected from unprivileged access by ensuring the file permissions allow only owner access,
and that the file is owned by root.
You can do this using the following commands:
chmod 400 corefile chown root corefile
COREFILE_SECURE can also be set for the entire system using the System Tuner.
Enter scoadmin system tuner at a shell prompt, or launch SCOadmin from the desktop and select
System > System Tuner.
Three new SCOadmin managers provide a graphical mass storage management interface:
These managers are grouped under a new Storage folder in the SCOadmin main window. Start SCOadmin from the CDE or Panorama desktop menus, or by entering scoadmin at a UNIX shell prompt. Managers can also be started from the command line using their names; for example, scoadmin disk starts the Disk Manager. Use the Help button on the main window of any Storage manager to display the online documentation, or look under the Mass Storage Devices Overview topic at the top level of DocView on http://hostname:8458.
The features listed in this section are contained in separate packages from the Update Pack Set. To install them, either select them from the Upgrade Wizard when you install the Update Pack Set, or follow the instructions in the section Installing Additional Packages after the Update Pack Set. See Update Pack Contents for the list of additional packages available.

The Mozilla internet browser, version 1.2.1, is included in a separate package as an alternative to Netscape Communicator 4.61 (delivered in the base Release 7.1.3 system). If you install Mozilla using the Upgrade Wizard when you install the Update Set, all prerequisite packages will be installed as well. If you install Mozilla using pkgadd(1M), you will need to install them in the order shown (after installing the Update Set) to enable Mozilla on UnixWare 7.1.3:
The j2re131 and j2plg131 packages are required for Java plug-in support only.
For example, if you download all the .image files from the download site to /var/spool/pkg, use the following commands to install these packages:
pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/basex.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/xserver.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/glib.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/gtk.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/libIDL.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/mozilla.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/j2jre131.image all pkgadd -d /var/spool/pkg/j2plg131.image all
If you are using a mounted CD or CD ISO image (see Step 1 and 2 of Installing the Update Pack from CD), mounted under /install, enter the following:
pkgadd -d /install basex pkgadd -d /install xserver pkgadd -d /install/glib.image all pkgadd -d /install/gtk.image all pkgadd -d /install/libIDL.image all pkgadd -d /install/mozilla.image all pkgadd -d /install j2jre131 pkgadd -d /install j2plg131
A mozilla(1) manual page is installed with the browser, and can be viewed with the man(1) command or with DocView on http://hostname:8458.
The following notes apply to using the Update Pack 2 version of Mozilla in locales other than en_US.
The mozilla released in the Update Pack 2 has been built for the US English locales. All menus and help material are in English.
Localization of the user interfaces are provided by individual contributors to the Mozilla Localization Project. These typically:
Language Packs currently available for Mozilla 1.2.1 are:
Asturian, Belarusian, Breton, Catalan, Simplified Chinese (China), Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong), Traditional Chinese (Taiwan), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English (United Kingdom), Esperanto, Estonian, French, Galician, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Lithuanian, Mongolian, Norwegian Nynorsk, Telugu, Turkish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Sorbian, Spanish (Latin America), Spanish (Argentina), Spanish (Spain), Polish, Portuguese (Brazil) and Ukrainian.
To install individual Language Packs, do the following as root in Mozilla:
NOTE: Do not attempt to download Mozilla "Content Packs". These contain binaries and libraries compiled for locales on specific operating systems. There are currently no Content Packs for Mozilla running on UnixWare 7, and loading one of them may result in unexpected behavior.
Once a Language Pack is installed, it must be enabled in Mozilla. Select Edit > Preferences > Appearance > Language/Contents, and choose the Installed Language Pack desired. Then restart Mozilla for the new language pack to take effect.
When using Mozilla in a Japanese locale, Japanese characters may not be displayed as they are typed using the X input method (invoked by typing Shift+Space). The Japanese characters are instead displayed when Enter is pressed. This behavior is the default setting of the xim.input_style attribute in the Mozilla browser. To have characters displayed as they are typed in Japanese locales, add the following line to each user's java script preferences file (typically $HOME/.mozilla/default/*/prefs.js):
user_pref("xim.input_style", "over-the-spot");
The basedoc and baseman packages contain guide material and manual pages for the new features, enhancements, and fixes delivered with Update Pack 2. They assume that the packages of the same name from Release 7.1.3 are already installed. Online documentation is viewed using the DocView documentation server (docview), at http://hostname:8458, where hostname is the network node name of the UnixWare system (e.g., system1, system1.yourdomain.com, etc.) or localhost. The document you are reading now is found under New Features and Notes.
The OpenSSL package has been updated to 0.9.7 with a security fix that prevents a timing-based attack on cipher suites used in SSL and TLS. OpenSSL is an Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a general purpose cryptography library. A user level command, openssl(1), is provided that performs a variety of cryptographic functions.
Documentation for OpenSSL is packaged separately in openssld on the UnixWare 7.1.3 Updates and Upgrades CD #2. The following manual pages are installed under /usr/man, and can be viewed via man(1) or the DocView Man Pages button (http://hostname:8458):
asn1parse.1 ca.1 CA.pl.1 ciphers.1 crl.1 crl2pkcs7.1 dgst.1 dhparam.1 dsa.1 dsaparam.1 enc.1 gendsa.1 genrsa.1 nseq.1 openssl.1 passwd.1 | pkcs12.1 pkcs7.1 pkcs8.1 rand.1 req.1 rsa.1 rsautl.1 s_client.1 s_server.1 sess_id.1 smime.1 speed.1 spkac.1 verify.1 version.1 x509.1 | bio.3 blowfish.3 bn.3 bn_internal.3 buffer.3 crypto.3 d2i_DHparams.3 d2i_RSAPublicKey.3 des.3 dh.3 dsa.3 err.3 evp.3 hmac.3 lh_stats.3 lhash.3 | md5.3 mdc2.3 OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER.3 OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms.3 rand.3 rc4.3 ripemd.3 rsa.3 sha.3 ssl.3 threads.3 config.5 des_modes.7 |
For more information on OpenSSL see the OpenSSL Web Site.
The openssh 3.4p1 package has been updated to fix several minor problems with the location and file permissions of /etc/sshd.pid, and the location of /usr/X11R6.1/bin/xauth. OpenSSH is a suite of network connectivity tools that encrypts all traffic to effectively eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other network-level attacks. OpenSSH provides a variety of secure tunneling capabilities and authentication methods. This version fixes a major security vulnerability present in versions 2.3.1 to 3.3, and is built with privilege separation and compression turned on. SSH protocol versions 1.3, 1.5, and 2.0 are supported.
The OpenSSH suite includes:
Manual pages are provided for all of the above commands, as well as pages for the ssh_config(5) and sshd_config(5) SSH client and server configuration files. To display them, use the man(1) command or DocView on http://hostname:8458. For more information on OpenSSH, please go to the OpenSSH Web Site http://www.openssh.org/manual.html.
NOTE: You should install OpenSSL from the Update Pack before installing OpenSSH, even if you have a previous version of OpenSSL already installed.
Ethernet packets are required by RFC894 and RFC1042 to be a minimum of 46 bytes. Smaller packets are required to be padded with zeros to the 46 byte minimum, but the standards do not specify what part of the system (e.g., the kernel, the driver, etc.) should do the padding. As a result of this ambiguity in the standard, some drivers will pad Ethernet packets themselves (sometimes called "auto-padding") with random data obtained from a buffer. The information contained in the buffer is used as padding in the Ethernet frame, and therefore is available to any program that is monitoring network packets.
UnixWare closes this vulnerability by padding the Ethernet buffer with zeros at the DLPI level, before the driver (or any other entity) has an opportunity to pad the buffer with non-zero data.
The system is updated with this enhancement by the nics package.
The zlib data compression library package (/usr/lib/libz.so) has been updated to eliminate a security vulnerability due to a buffer overflow condition in the gzprintf function. The zlib Manual from the zlib Home Page is available as a manual page; enter man zlib or use the Man Pages button in DocView on http://hostname:8458.
Samba provides filesharing capabilities using native Microsoft SMB and CIFS protocols for interoperability with Microsoft operating systems. Samba 2.2.8a is provided in two versions: a single-byte version for Western locales (samba) and a multibyte version suitable for Asian locales (sambamb). The important difference between the two versions is the sorting algorithm used for file ordering which determines whether the file sorting is compatible with wide-character or ascii character code environments.
Note the following when installing Samba:
If you are upgrading from a previous release of Samba on UnixWare, save a copy of your existing /usr/lib/samba/lib/smb.conf file before you begin installation, so you can restore any settings that might be affected by the upgrade.
If Samba fails to start, make sure the directory /usr/lib/samba/private exists, that it has 755 permission, and is owned by user root and group bin; then, start Samba, as shown:
# cd /usr/lib/samba # mkdir private # chgrp bin private # chown root private # /etc/init.d/samba start
By default, /tmp is automatically shared. This can be a security concern, since various system utilities keep temporary data in /tmp. To remove the /tmp share, log into SWAT (see above) and select the Shares icon. On the next screen, highlight the tmp share in the list box and select the Delete Share button.
Samba cannot run together with Advanced File and Print Sharing (AFPS; found on the Optional Services CD #3), nor with the NetBIOS protocol running. If Samba will not start, do the following to determine if AFPS or NetBIOS are running, and disable them if necessary:
Enter:
# cd /etc/rc2.d
S74netbios S99ms_srv
If these one or both of these files exist, enter the appropriate command or commands shown below:
# mv S74netbios s74netbios # mv S99ms_srv s99ms_srv
# shutdown -i6 -g0 -y
Start Samba:
# /etc/init.d/samba start
Samba is configured with the SWAT (Samba Web Administration Tool) utility using a web browser on http://hostname:901; links to all the Samba documentation are provided from there. To start SWAT:
As root, enter:
# /usr/lib/samba/sbin/swat
Point a web browser at http://localhost:901.
Log in to SWAT as root.
The main SWAT screen provides links to all the Samba documentation. Select the Status icon to start the Samba daemons.
To start, stop, and restart Samba from the command line, use the /etc/init.d/samba command, as in this example:
# /etc/init.d/samba start
To enable Samba at system startup, enter the following:
# /etc/init.d/samba enable
Samba will now start up automatically whenever the system boots. The disable parameter returns Samba to manual startup.
Localization settings in both the single-byte and multibyte versions are accessed from the SWAT Home Page by clicking on the Globals tab, and then selecting Advanced View. Set appropriate values for your locale for the client code page, the character encoding system, and the other options (each option has context-sensitive help). Please refer to the documentation for smb.conf for futher details.
Note: the smbfs file system and associated commands (smbmnt, smbmount, smbumount) are not supported on Release 7.1.3. Other client tools, such as smbspool, are supported.
More Samba documentation and other resources are provided on the Samba Home Page.
Update Pack 2 contains the following features that were delivered previously with Update Pack 1.
The DocView documentation server displays the UnixWare documentation set on port 8458, and is enabled by default for network access. Point any browser on your network at http://hostname:8458, where hostname is the network node name of the UnixWare system.
Two enhancements have been made to DocView:
# /usr/lib/docview/conf/set.rundig.cron --add # /usr/lib/docview/conf/set.rundig.cron --remove
A new printing interface has been added that allows you to pick a group of topics to be printed as a book.
Selecting the Print Book button at the top of the DocView screen opens a copy of the DocView Site Map, from which you can select topics for printing by turning on the check boxes next to the listed topics. At the top of the Print Service screen, select whether you want to generate a PostScript or PDF file. Specify a title for the book, and the heading level to be used in the table of contents.
When you on the Submit button, the selected topics are collected, formatted for printing, and paginated. The cover and custom table of contents are generated and added to the beginning of the document.
When DocView is finished preparing the file, it displays a screen telling you the size of the file and the number of pages in the document. Select the Proceed with download button to start downloading the file to your browser (or save it to a file on your local system).
The resulting PDF file can be viewed with any PDF viewer (such as xpdf on UnixWare, or Acrobat on Windows) or PDF-enabled browser. The PostScript file can be printed to a PostSript printer via lp, as in this example:
$ lp -T PS -d printer file
Note that the assembled PDF or PostScript file is limited to about 1.5MB of HTML text, or about 600 pages. If your selections exceed this limit, an error message is displayed. Select your browser's Back button to go back to the Print Service screen and turn off some of your selections.
The emergency_disk(1M) command now supports creating an emergency recovery boot CD, as an alternative to using boot floppies. In previous releases, a set of emergency recovery floppy disks was required to boot the system. This meant that your system had to have a 3.5-inch floppy disk drive in order to be restored from emergency recovery media. This is a problem for newer systems that do not support IDE floppy drives. Now, emergency_disk can create a boot CD using CD-R or CD-RW media on an IDE, SCSI, or USB recordable CD drive, so that boot floppies are no longer required. See the emergency_disk(1M) manual page for more information.
Note that the cdrtools package (found on the UnixWare 7.1.3 Optional Services CD #3) is required to create an emergency recovery boot CD, and that only CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD+RW drives that work with cdrtools are supported for emergency recovery.
To test a particular drive to see if it will work with emergency_disk, enter the cdrecord commands shown below. The first command returns the arguments you need in the second command. The second invocation of cdrecord should return the string shown as part of its output:
# /bin/cdrecord -scanbus # /bin/cdrecord -inq dev=scsibus,target,lun ... Device seems to be: Generic mmc CD-RW. ...
The following CD drives are known to work with emergency recovery:
Problems have been observed with the IOMEGA ZIPCD USB drive and the OPTORITE CD-RW CW4802 IDE drive.
To prevent a timeout problem when burning a CD using an IDE CD-RW drive, the following value in /etc/conf/pack.d/ide/space.c is changed by the installation of the Update Pack from:
int atapi_timeout=10;
to:
int atapi_timeout=1000;
If you use cdrtools to burn CDs on an IDE hard drive but do not install the Update Pack, you can make the above change manually, and then reboot to rebuild the kernel.
When restoring the system using emergency recovery boot media (CD or floppy), a new option to
write the master boot record (MBR) of the primary hard disk is displayed.
This option writes the UnixWare MBR to the boot sector of the primary hard disk.
This option is useful if the disk is known to have a valid operating system (OS) on it,
yet the error No OS found, No operating system,
or a similar message is displayed when you attempt to boot from the disk.
Writing the MBR may permit the disk to boot without further recovery.
Note that any other OS boot loader in the boot sector (such as grub, lilo,
or System Commander) will be overwritten by this option.
The following Host Bus Adapter (HBA) drivers are new or updated:
These drivers are not installed by the Upgrade Wizard (uli), unless (in the case of qlc2200), a previous version exists on the system. To install them, use the pkgadd command. Follow Steps 1 and 2 of the Installation Procedure, and then enter the following:
# pkgadd -d device package...
The device is cdrom1 if you followed Step 2a; or, /install if you followed Step 2b. Replace package with the names of one or both of the drivers. This example installs the mpt driver from a mounted ISO image file:
# pkgadd -d /install mpt
See the Compatible Hardware Page for the latest supported HBAs and drivers.
The nd package on the Update Pack CD contains updated versions of the following network interface card (NIC) drivers, which now support the indicated network cards:
PRO/100+ Management Adapter (PILA8900) PRO/100 Server (PILA8480) Pro/100B T4 (PILA8475B) PRO/100 S Server (PILA8474B) PRO/100 S Server (PILA8474BUS) PRO/100+ Dual Port Server Adapter (PILA8472) PRO/100+ Server Adapter (PILA8470) PRO/100+ Server Adapter (PILA8470B) PRO/100+ Dual Port Server Adapter (61PMCA00) PRO/100 (PILA8465) PRO/100B Adapter (PILA8465B) InBusiness 10/100 Adapter (SA101TX) PRO/100 S Management (PILA8464B) Pro/100+ Management Adapter (PILA8461) Pro/100+ (PILA8460) Pro/100+ Management Adapter (PILA8460B) Pro/100+ (PILA8460BN) PRO/100 S Management (PILA8460BUS) Pro/10+ (PILA8500) Pro/10+ (PILA8520)

You can select the nd package when you use the Upgrade Wizard to install the Update Pack CD. To add the nd package separately, see the instructions in the section Installing Additional Packages after the Update Pack 1 Set.
The UnixWare 7.1.3 nd package can also be installed on Release 7.1.2 (also known as OpenUNIX 8.0.0) or Release 7.1.1 to update the network drivers or to take advantage of the enhanced tcpdump functionality (see tcpdump Enhancements).
Please note the following when installing the Release 7.1.3 nd package on 7.1.1:
You will also need to install ptf7689b
(
view text file |
download) on Release 7.1.1 before installing the updated nd package; otherwise
the latest tcpdump fails on Release 7.1.1 with the message
dynamic linker: tcpdump: binder error: symbol not found: strlcpy.
During installation on Release 7.1.1, the error UX:grep: ERROR: cannot open
/etc/inst/nd/mdi/shrkudi/Master: No such file or directory is displayed.
This error affects the UDI shrk driver only, which is not supported on
Release 7.1.1.
Use the MDI version of the shrk driver instead.
Poor system and network performance has been observed on some systems when one or more of the Network Interface Cards (NICs) attached to the system is unplugged from the network. This was due to repeated failure indications being sent to the dlpid(1M) daemon.
In Release 7.1.3, a change was made to dplid to correct this problem. dlpid was changed to check the time between successive hardware failure indications. If the time difference is less than 10 seconds, dlpid sleeps for a 10 second interval before trying the device again.
dlpid has been further extended to sleep for a configurable duration between successive hardware failure indications, to allow the NIC to reset and come out of the failure mode, in cases where the default 10-second wait is not enough time for the NIC to reset. A new dlpid option, -r, is added to wait for the specified time. By default it is set to 10 seconds. If the pre-7.1.3 behavior is required (i.e., no wait between successive hardware failure indications), then dlpid can be started with the -r option set to 0.
Various enhancements were made to the pppd(1M) daemon to enhance the reliability and scalability of Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connections. Most of these improvements were made to driver code, and so are not visible at the user level. Some are listed in the section Problems Fixed.
An lp(1) filter has been added to allow printing of PostScript files (such as those created by Netscape) to be printed on PCL Printers (such as Hewlett-Packard). To enable this feature:
Install the latest ghostscript package from the Skunkware Web Site.
Define a PCL printer using the scoadmin printer interface.
Enter a command like the following to print a PostScript file on the printer.
lp -TPS -dpcl_printer file.ps
Where pcl_printer is the name of the printer and file.ps
is the name of the PostScript file.
This command (without the file name) can be specified in your browser's
preferences to print files automatically to this printer.
Version 3.7.1 of tcpdump(1M) is provided, along with its supporting library, libpcap(3) (version 0.7). The tcpdump utility allows you to view and save TCP headers passing through a particular network interface. Boolean expressions can be used to select only those headers that match the criteria given by the expression.
This version of tcpdump has many enhancements over the version (3.4a5) provided in UnixWare 7.1.3. Most notably, the new version does not require a dedicated network card for tcpdump. Multiple instances of tcpdump can be started to monitor the same card. See the tcpdump(1M) and pcap(3) manual pages. Also see the tcpdump web site for libpcap tutorials, as well as tcpdump and libpcap source code.
A number of changes to the MDI and DLPI interfaces were made to support the new version of tcpdump.
Two new MDI ioctl commands are added for MDI2.2 drivers, to turn promiscuous mode on and off: MACIOC_PROMISCON and MACIOC_PROMISCOFF. MACIOC_PROMISCON is compatible with MACIOC_PROMISC in MDI2.1.
The following DLPI2.0 features are also implemented:
To support the above changes, updated header files dlpimod.h and mdi.h are provided in the nics package for Update Pack 1, as well as the updated support for running tcpdump on a non-dedicated network card. tcpdump, libpcap, and related header files are provided by the nd package. If the nd package is installed without the updated nics package, the updated tcpdump, etc., are installed, but must be used with a dedicated network controller as in previous releases.
The updated nd package can also be installed on Release 7.1.2 (Open UNIX 8.0.0) and on Release 7.1.1 if the latest version of tcpdump is desired. The nics package is not supported and will not install on these earlier releases, however, so tcpdump on Release 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 will continue to require a dedicated network card.
The following minor modifications have been made in order to maintain conformance to the UNIX 95 standard:
The dd command was modified to accept and ignore a double dash (--) as an end of options indicator. Note that dd has no options that begin with a dash (-), so "--" can only appear as the leading argument and consequently has no real purpose.
The sort command was modified to remove its previous (mistaken) UNIX 95 behavior. Previously, when using sort -c with the POSIX2 environment variable set, sort only indicated whether the input was sorted through its exit value. The sort command was changed for Release 7.1.3 to remove the dependency on the POSIX2 environment variable, so that sort -c will always return a diagnostic if the input is out of order.
The two supported Korn shells (/bin/ksh and /u95/bin/sh) did not recognize an integer literal with a leading 0 as being octal, nor a leading 0x or 0X as hexadecimal in arithmetic constructs. This does not match the intent of the POSIX.2 and OpenGroup shell specification. So, for example, the following output was seen in previous versions of the Korn shell:
$ echo $((10+1)) 11 $ echo $((010+1)) 11 $ echo $((0x10+1)) /u95/bin/sh: 0x10+1: arithmetic syntax error
A change was made to work as intended when the POSIX2 environment variable is set:
$ export POSIX2=on $ echo $((10+1)) 11 $ echo $((010+1)) 9 $ echo $((0x10+1)) 17
Note that because integer constants like 010 have a silent change in behavior, this change requires POSIX2 to be set in the environment.
Minor namespace changes to the following header files:
arpa/inet.h netdb.h netinet/in.h netinet/in6_f.h netinet/in_f.h fmtmsg.h grp.h libgen.h pwd.h stdarg.h strings.h unistd.h utmp.h utmpx.h wchar.h sys/fcntl.h sys/stat.h sys/statvfs.h sys/convsa.h sys/stropts.h sys/mman.h sys/socket.h sys/un.h sys/regset.h sys/siginfo.h sys/ucontext.h sys/fp.h

(MP2)
Closing file descriptors 0, 1 and/or 2 before exec'ing a setuid
program can make this program open files under these file descriptors, which
have special meanings for libc (stdin/stdout/stderr). Reading or
writing to root-owned files can be made possible, since
stdin/stdout/stderr==opened_file.

(MP2) Repeated logins on virtual terminals (/dev/vt02 ... /dev/vt08)
result in file descriptor leakage in ttymon.
erg501636/fz525650
(MP2) When excessive short-lived rlogin sessions are being created,
/var/adm/wtmp and /var/adm/wtmpx get out of sync and must be
rewritten. While these files are being rewritten, no one can
rlogin to the system. If these files grow quite large, this
can take up to 20-30 minutes. Also under heavy load the
short-lived rlogin sessions may leave in utmp the entries
from sessions that have actually completed.

erg712172 fz526750
(MP2) Fix for sdiadd -n panic on systems with a pre-DDI8 Host Bus Adapter (HBA).
The problem was that sdi_hot_add() was not converting the older style SCSI address
into the newer extended SCSI addressing scheme properly. The original
fix set the address to -1's instead of 0's for the wildcard case.
pdi_hot will set the SCSI address to all -1's to tell SDI
that we want to scan the entire SCSI bus starting from absolute address
0/0/0/0 (controller/bus/target/lun).
erg712223 fz527360

Problems have been observed with the DocView (http://hostname:8458) PRINT BOOK facility:
Some files do not print when selected from the PRINT BOOK list, or the incorrect content is printed instead. This occurs in C and non-C locales.
Multibyte files cannot be printed (this includes, for example, Japanese-language documentation from the jabasedoc package on the Localized Documentation CD in the UnixWare Media Kit) from the PRINT BOOK list. This is because the underlying engine in DocView for printing HTML (HTMLDOC) does not support multibyte files.
Some documents are not being printed in foreign languages when locale is properly selected and the foreign-language documentation is installed.
The workaround in all these cases is to display the files individually from the DocView SITE MAP interface (which is identical to the PRINT BOOK list), and use your browser's Print command to print the files.
For example, if you use the PRINT BOOK interface to print a New Features file
and it does not work, click on the SITE MAP button on the DocView menu (http://hostname:8458) and
select the name of the link that you wanted to print (the SITE MAP and PRINT BOOK lists are identical).
Once the document is loaded into the browser, print it using your browser's
Print command (File > Print in Netscape) to print to a local printer or
to a file.
The formats available depend on your local browser's setup.
527817
Update Pack 2 includes xAPIC support for IBM x440 systems. On some platforms, such as the IBM xSeries 360 (x360), the OS detects it should use xAPIC but the platform does not properly support it. If this happens, the symptoms are device timeouts (either a disk driver or HBA) very early during the boot process. The system will display a message stating that an HBA or disk command has timed out, and the system will become unresponsive (hang). If you are using a Multi-Processing (MP) system with Pentium 4 (Xeon) processors and this occurs do the following:
Reset the system.
When the system displays the UnixWare logo during the boot sequence, interrupt the boot by pressing any key.
At the boot prompt enter:
USE_XAPIC=N boot
The system should now boot normally.
Once the system is running, edit /stand/boot and add the following entry to the file:
USE_XAPIC=N
This will ensure that you do not need to interrupt the boot process again.
You may see the following error during installation of the OpenSSH (openssh) package:
##Executing postinstall script. dynamic linker: /usr/sbin/sshd: could not open libcrypto.so.0.9.7 Killed /etc/init.d/opensshd: Error 137 starting /usr/sbin/sshd....Bailing.
This indicates that the OpenSSL (openssl) package is not installed; the installation of openssh,
however, will still report success.
To fix this, install the openssl package from the Update Pack 2 media
and then re-install openssh.
527982
If you install Update Pack 1 on a freshly installed UnixWare 7.1.3 system, you may see Warning messages during installation of the packages on the Update Pack 1 CD image. This happens most commonly when you specify the correct local time when installing UnixWare 7.1.3, but select a locale whose timezone differs from the local timezone. As a result, there can be a mismatch between the current system time and the time stamp on the files installed from Update Pack 1, which causes the following warning to be displayed:
WARNING: Reapply uw713u1 package. Failure to do so may leave your
system in an inconsistent state.
If this occurs, execute the following command:
pkginfo -l | grep INSTDATE | sort -u | more
Wait until the latest time returned by the above command has passed, and then reinstall the the uw713u1 package:
pkgadd -d device uw713u1
Where device is the location of the mounted Update Pack 1 CD or CD image, or the
location of the Update Pack image.

When launching the Upgrde Wizard using the uli command from a desktop window, the Upgrade Wizard
may exit unexpectedly if you press the space bar a few times while it is loading.
To work around this, re-run the Upgrade Wizard.
527905
During installation of Update Pack 1 on a system that was upgraded from a release prior to Release 7.1.3, warnings such as the following may be displayed:
UX:pkginstall: WARNING: /etc/conf/pack.d/msr/Driver.o <shared file is volatile> UX:pkginstall: WARNING: /etc/conf/pack.d/pcid/Driver.o <shared file is volatile> UX:pkginstall: WARNING: /etc/conf/pack.d/ppp/Driver.o <shared file is volatile> UX:pkginstall: WARNING: /etc/conf/pack.d/pppml/Driver.o <shared file is volatile> ...
The Warnings displayed on your system will depend on the originally installed release.
These Warnings are expected and can be safely ignored.

Japanese characters are not displayed as they are typed (using the X input method, invoked by typing a "shift-space") when filling a text or dialog box. The Japanese characters are instead displayed when "Enter" is pressed. This behavior is the default setting of the xim.input_style attribute in the Mozilla browser.
If users desire to have characters displayed as they are typed, they need to add the following line:
user_pref("xim.input_style", "over-the-spot");
to their preferences java script file, typically $HOME/.mozilla/default/*/prefs.js.
