+                   OpenAFS Release Notes - Version 1.2.8
+      _________________________________________________________________
+ New platform support.
+ All systems: New functionality and minor bugfixes.
+      _________________________________________________________________
+ 
+ * Native Kerberos 5 support: rxkad 2b
+ 
+ AFS is now capable of using Kerberos 5 for authentication via rxkad
+ 2b.  Clients do not need to be updated to take advantage of this,
+ although they must be using a Kerberos 5 based aklog.  A krb5 aklog is
+ available as part of Ken Hornstein's afs-krb5 migration kit.  To use
+ rxkad 2b, your AFS servers must be running OpenAFS 1.2.8, and your
+ KDCs must be running MIT Kerberos 5 1.2.6 or later.  The krb524d
+ included in MIT Kerberos 5 1.2.6 will respond to requests for AFS
+ service tickets with only the encrypted part of a Kerberos 5 ticket.
+ krb524d can be configured to not do this on a per principal basis.
+ More information on configuring this krb524d behavior is available in
+ the README for MIT Kerberos 5 1.2.6 and later.
+ 
+ Support for this is not yet available in Heimdal, but will be present
+ in a forthcoming release.
+ 
+ Note that to use this feature, you must be running a krb524d.  A new
+ version of aklog that eliminates the need for krb524d is under development
+ and will be available in the near future.
+ 
+ OpenAFS servers will continue to accept Kerberos 4 derived tokens, so
+ it is not necessary to immediately upgrade your aklog or KDCs if you do
+ not wish to take advantage of this new feature.
+ 
+ * New platform support: HP-UX 11.0
+ 
+ HP-UX 11.0 is now supported.  Building for HP-UX 11.0 requires a
+ header called vfs_vm.h which HP has provided on their web site:
+ 
+ http://h21007.www2.hp.com/dspp/tech/tech_TechSoftwareDetailPage_IDX/1,1703,687,00.html
+ 
+ To navigate down from the top level of the portal, one would do
+ www.hp.com/dspp -> i want to... -> download software -> operating
+ systems to get to the same page.
+ 
+ All systems:
+ 
+ - A memory leak in the dynroot directory creation process was fixed.
+ 
+ - Modified the meaning of the -fakestat flag to afsd so that only mounpoints
+   for volumes outside the local cell have stat information faked.  The
+   -fakestat-all flag to afsd will provide the former behavior.
+ 
+ - Dynamically allocate memory for the array of client interface addresses
+   to avoid running over the end of the array.
+ 
+ - Don't assume getchar() returns char; it returns int.
+ 
+ - Modify Rx semantics of the serial number field in ack packets to provide
+   more reliable RTT computation.
+ 
+ - Change some ints to unsigned for correct quota calculation.
+ 
+ - Return EINVAL when the user tries to create a FIFO in AFS, instead of
+   silently creating a regular file.
+ 
+ Linux: 
+ 
+ - Disable new Linux kernel threads model in client to fix compilation
+   errors on RedHat 2.4.7-10 kernels.
+ 
+ - Downmap F_*LK64 macros to F_*LK if they're different, which is safe 
+   since we have no large files for now.
+ 
+ - Some rw locks that were previously not initialized now are.
+ 
+ - Patches to make the client work on Linux kernels that do not export
+   sys_call_table are now part of the base source distribution.
+ 
+ - Make PAGs under Linux deal correctly with the case of ngroups = 0.
+ 
+ Solaris:
+ 
+ - An NFS translator kernel module is now provided.
+ 
+ - Fix a fakestat related kernel panic: Only clean up the open count in
+   VOP_INACTIVE when the vcache is mvstat 0 (necessary because
+   executables don't get VOP_CLOSE'd). Volume roots (mvstat 2) need to
+   keep their open counts, because under fakestat, the mountpoint above
+   it is still considered open by the kernel.
+ 
+ - Don't silently drop bits if ino_t is a larger type than afs_int32.
+ 
+ MacOS X:
+ 
+ - Recognize MacOS X 10.2.2 as ppc_darwin_60.
+ 
+ Windows:
+ 
+ - The Windows AFS client will now handle move and rename operations
+   performed through Explorer correctly, and will warn the user when
+   the destination file name already exists.
+ 
+ - Files created in AFS via the Windows client will no longer be given
+   a timestamp of -1 (1969).
