HP Rp7410 CIFS/9000 Client Release Note, March 2002 - Page 4

CIFS/9000 Client A.01.07 What's New in Version A.01.07? What's New in Version A.01.07? This release contains the following fixes and enhancements: • Disconnected user sessions cannot reconnect This enhancement enables user connections that have been terminated by the server to be automatically re-established when the user attempts to access the server. • Logfile truncation at max size does not work This fix enforces the maximum logfile size of 50 Mbytes. If the logfile reaches this size, it is saved with .prev appended to its name (overwriting any other previously saved copy). The logfile is then restarted from 0 bytes. • Incorrect timestamp after DST switch This fix improves the synchronization of file timestamps between CIFS/9000 clients and Windows servers, when the time changes between standard and daylight savings time. • NetBIOS scope broken if scope has embedded period (".") character(s) This fixes a bug in the parsing of NetBIOS scope. Scope is an old feature of the CIFS protocol and its use is discouraged. • Some Japanese multibyte characters cannot be used The Japanese-language character-map files for ShiftJIS encoding have been modified to include symbols for integers-in-circles in the range [1 - 20], and various mathematical, Katakana and other symbols. 74 character mappings have been added. • Latest revision of CIFS Unix Extensions, v2.1 The Hewlett-Packard-authored CIFS Unix Extensions enable standard Unix file system semantics, such as symbolic links, file ownership and permissions to be implemented within the CIFS protocol. The latest revision of the specification, developed in collaboration with the Samba open-source project, provides greater inter operability through a new model for handling file sizes across platforms. 4 Chapter 1
