Corrected problems in version 4.29.2:
=====================================

4.29.2:1 SMB: Command misinterpretation
	 One application (ATP navigator) had problems both during 
	 installation and use due to misinterpretation of SMB commands.
	 
4.29.2:2 SMB: Wrong volume size reported to Windows 95/98 and NT clients.
	 When checking the properties for a CD mapped on a network drive, 
	 the size was always shown as 127MB independent of the size 
	 of the CD.

4.29.2:3 SMB: Incorrect size of a file returned to the NT client 
	 Running an application failed because a SMB command 
	 returned the incorrect size of a file. 

4.29.2:4 NetWare: Server disconnections
	 The corrections made in 4.29.1 caused the message
	 "Unable to communicate..." on the console of NetWare
	 console. The previous correction is now revoked.

4.29.2:5 NetWare: Applications creating temporary files
         Wrong error code was used when an application tried to create 
         a temporary file on a CD-ROM. This could cause the application 
	 to fail.

4.29.2:6 NetWare: Improved installation in NetWare 5 environments
	 Minor problems have been fixed that on rare occasions
         caused problems when installing the StorPoint on 
         NetWare 5 networks. 

4.29.2:7 NetWare: A correction for the newest Novell clients
	 Small corrections for browsing problems with Novell clients 
	 3.1 and 4.6. with SP2 have been made. These problems appeared 
	 when the ShowAllVolumes parameter was set to 'no' and no CDs 
	 were mounted. 

4.29.2:8 File system: Ejecting disks while they were being accessed
	 On rare occasions, the server could hang or reboot when disks
	 were ejected while they were being accessed. Disks could be 
	 ejected because :

	 a) A changer was changing disks.
	 b) The operator ejected a disk manually from the front panel.
	 c) The system ejected a disk because the drive it was inserted
     	 in didn't handle ISO9660 compliance level 3 well enough.

Corrected problems in version 4.29.1:
=====================================

4.29.1:1 SMB: Hanging in user level security mode.
         In rare conditions the domain controller was never released
         and all available threads in the CD-ROM server could be
         reserved. This caused the server to stop responding to
         incoming requests.

4.29.1:2 SMB: Problems with volume properties in Windows 95.
         When using the Properties function on a mapped CD share
         in Windows 95 the volume label appeared truncated and 
         the file system name contained garbage.

4.29.1:3 NetWare: NDS rights.
         Now it is possible to set NDS rights for CD's with names
         longer than 8 chars.

4.29.1:4 NetWare: File search problem.
         Sometimes, when searching for files, the server reported
         the same file twice.  This caused some installation
         programs to fail.

4.29.1:5 NetWare: Unused connections.
         Connections to the CD-server from other servers are thrown
         out after 2 hours, if nobody is logged in.

4.29.1:6 NetWare: Unused connections in statistics.
         Connections with nobody logged in are not shown in
         the statistics.
