• Display a message stating that the user does not have proper privileges when a non-authorized user attempts to change the customized security settings.
• Fixed a problem where typing in the remote control applet window did not work when using JRE1.6 on the remote client.
• Corrected a problem where event log entries are created but remote alerts are not sent for some power faults.
• Corrected a typo in the SNMP rtrsaag.mib file that prevented SNMP app lication from compiling it succesfully.
• Fixed a problem when a DHCP server changes its lease time to a small value, that prevents the Remote Supervisor Adapter II from renewing its address.
• Corrected a problem that may cause remote video to hang or go blank.
• Corrected a problem that caused a remote disk read error when uploading different disk images.
• Corrected a problem that could cause flashing the Remote Supervisor Adapter II firmware update to fail.
• Corrected a problem that SLP Needs to return rio ports.
• Corrected a problem where the NTP update frequency could be incorrectly displayed.
• Corrected a problem that prevented a user from logging in when using the anonymous binding method.
• Corrected a problem where some alert settings become unselected after updating the Remote Supervisor Adapter II firmware.
• Reduced the number of event log entries that are generated when accessing the Remote Supervisor Adapter II via SNMP.
• Corrected wflash to work with the 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows Server 2008.

Enhancement:

• Added improvements to prevent repeating keystrokes when using the remote control feature on networks with long latency.
• Added the FPGA level to the display on the Vital Product Data Web page.
• Added support for Dynamic DNS.
• Added support for multiple NTP servers.
• Added the ability to permit SSHv2 only support.
• Added a command to the command line interface to disable the Remote Supervisor Adapter II firewall.

Version 1.08 - Build ID: PZE825A

Problem(s) Fixed:

• Added support for port setting adjustment on Remote Console

Enhancement:

• Support updated flash utility

Limitations: none.
Dependencies: none.

Version 1.05 - Build ID: PZE822A

Problem(s) Fixed:

• Prohibit multiple login profiles from being created with the same user name.
• Corrected Daylight Savings Time support for New Zealand
• Enable SNMP alerts to be sent for a hard drive fault recovery
• Permit simultaneous remote mounting of IMG and ISO files
• Allow an ISO or IMG file with readonly attributes to be mounted.
• Corrected a problem where the Write Protect selection did not work on remote USB key mounts
• Improved the handling of invalid network data to prevent the network connection from hanging.
• Corrected a problem where login profiles may not be restored correctly when the configuration settings are restored from a file.
• Fixed a problem where an SNMP walk through query of the system health could loop infinitely
• Fixed a problem where the user either sees a blank web page or a timeout for the page not loading. The problem can occur in three scenarios:
  1. The maximum number of failed attempts to log into the RSA-II web interface has been reached. Normally, a page stating "Too many unsuccessful login attempts have been detected." would have been displayed.
  2. When the maximum number of sessions are already in use. Normally a page stating "All sessions are currently in use. Try again later." would have been displayed.
  3. The web session lost due to someone else logging in with the same user id. Normally a page stating "Your session has terminated because you logged in with this userid at another location." would have been displayed.
• Corrected a problem where after after accessing the Remote Supervisor Adapter II from 4 different SNMP hosts, accesses from other hosts were not allowed.
• Permit writes of large files (larger than 10MB) to remotely mounted USB key
• Corrected a failure to copy large files from a remote floppy drive.
• Corrected a problem that intermittently caused the Remote Supervisor Adapter II to not respond to SNMP requests if the Remote Supervisor Adapter II is sent multiple SNMP requests while being reset.
• Corrected a problem that prevented the Remote Control feature from working with clients when Network Address Translation is used.
• Corrected the IP address reported in the Service Location Protocol data. When one of the "dot" fields is set to 0, the Remote Supervisor Adapter II previously reported the address field as "000" instead of just "0". IBM Director will not recognize IP addresses reported with multiple 0's ("000") in the fields.
• Corrected a problem where performing an SNMP query from any host when using 0.0.0.0 in the first hostname of the first community fails.

Enhancement:

• Allow larger size certificates to be imported. Increased the maximum allowable certificate size from 2039 to 5112 bytes.
