    Copyright © 2007,2008 Process Software, LLC
 
    This kit updates MultiNet V5.2 Rev A with a new version of SERVER.EXE and
    START_SERVER.COM for MultiNet for OpenVMS. 

    The ranking for this ECO is 3.

    Included in this kit are fixes for the following :

    - Correct errors in handling Accept/Reject-Hosts/Nets lists.
      (ECO MASTER_SERVER-053_A052 ECO Rank 3. DE 10786)

    --------------------------------------------------

   This kit also includes the following changes from previous ECO kits:

    - Correct a build error that can lead to memory leaks on Integrity systems.
      There are no changes for VAX or Alpha systems.
      (ECO MASTER_SERVER-040_A052 ECO Rank 3.)

    - Provide a SHUTDOWN command for the CLUSTERALIAS service so that current
      cluster aliases can be properly shutdown before restarting the MultiNet
      master server.
      (ECO MASTER_SERVER-030_A052 ECO Rank 3.)

    - Handle mapped IPv4 addresses correctly when doing accounting so that VMS
      intrusion handling continues to work as it did in prior versions of
      MultiNet.  Note that this does not address the issue for IPv6 addresses
      that are not IPv4 mapped addresses; support for that will require a
      MultiNet Kernel patch.
      (DE 10517 ECO MASTER_SERVER-020_A052 ECO Rank 3.)

    - Correct errors in checking accept-net and reject-net configuration when
      the configuration information has IPv4 addresses and connections have
      IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses.
      (ECO MASTER_SERVER-020_A052 ECO Rank 3.)

   -  Make sure that the CLUSTERALIAS service releases the address before
      restarting the master server so that kernel data structures are properly
      cleaned up before the some other member of the cluster grabs the
      CLUSTERALIAS address.
      (ECO MASTER_SERVER-020_A052 ECO Rank 3.)

    - Correct an error in checking IPv4 addresses in access restriction lists
      when the incoming address is a IPv4 Mapped address.
      (DE 10510 ECO MASTER_SERVER-010_A052 ECO Rank 3.)
