+                   OpenAFS Release Notes - Version 1.2.9
+      _________________________________________________________________
+ New platform support.
+ All systems: New functionality and minor bugfixes.
+      _________________________________________________________________
+ 
+ * kaserver defaults to disallowing interrealm authentication.
+ 
+ Due to security holes present in the Kerberos 4 protocol, the kaserver
+ now defaults to disallowing interrealm authentication.  This functionality
+ can be restored by supplying the "-crossrealm" flag to the kaserver.
+ However, note that doing so is considered a significant security risk.
+ 
+ * New platform support: RedHat Linux 9.0, Solaris 9 12/02, server only
+   support for Tru64 5.1.
+ 
+ All systems:
+ 
+ - rxkad 2b will now do krb4/krb5 principal name translation.
+ 
+ - Always include errno.h instead of declaring "extern int errno", for
+   compatability with modern glibc.
+ 
+ - Fix race conditions in fileserver responsible for various fileserver
+   crashes.
+ 
+ - Fix a deadlock condition in the fileserver that could occur at shutdown
+   time.
+ 
+ - Fix fileserver logging to be more verbose and to specify ports in the
+   correct byte order.
+ 
+ - Rewrite of cell handling code, to allow for more consistant behavior
+   across reboots.  This also allows clients to have an empty CellServDB
+   as long as AFSDB support is enabled and ThisCell has AFSDB records.
+ 
+   A consequence of this is that an OpenAFS 1.2.9 afsd will not work
+   with kernel modules from OpenAFS releases prior to 1.2.9.  In general,
+   using mismatched afsd/kernel module pairs are considered unsupported;
+   it is not recommended that you use such a configuration on a regular
+   basis.
+ 
+ - Corrected integer overflow in xdrmem_getbytes() routine in our xdr
+   implementation, even thought it's unused.
+ 
+ Solaris:
+ 
+ - Autoconf glue added to correctly build on Solaris 9 12/02, which replaced
+   the fs_rlink member of a struct fs with with fs_rolled.
+ 
+ - Kernel module now no longer uses the depricated newproc() function,
+   instead using thread_create to spawn a kernel thread.
+ 
+ - Repaired Solaris x86 support.
+ 
+ Linux:
+ 
+ - On machines using 2.2 series kernels, 2.2.19 or higher is now required.
+ 
+ - Notice NETUNREACH errors and timeout attempts to access AFS quickly
+   when we're not on the network.
+ 
+ - rxk listener shutdown code rewritten to no longer need sys_kill.
+ 
+ - Search for linux kernel headers in both /usr/src/linux-2.4 and
+   /usr/src/linux at build time.
+ 
+ MacOS X:
+ 
+ - Recognize MacOS X 10.2.3, 10.2.4, and 10.2.5 as ppc_darwin_60 at
+   build time.
+ 
+ AIX:
+ 
+ - Make the salvager work on namei fileserver partitions.
+ 
+ Tru64:
+ 
+ - Allow server binaries to be built on Tru64 5.1.  No client support yet.
