IBM AFS for Windows, version 3.6



***************************************************************

The README.txt file includes AFS for Windows product notes, which

can possibly identify specific limitations and restrictions

associated with this release of AFS for Windows.







AFS Partitions No Longer Need to Reside On Empty NTFS Volumes



On Windows NT machines, any NTFS volume can be designated as an AFS

partition.  Previously, an NTFS volume containing any data other than

the Windows Recycler could not be designated as an AFS partition. 







Encryption Not Supported in Simplified Chinese Version of Windows 98



The Simplified Chinese version of Microsoft Windows 98 does not support

encryption, which is needed to transmit AFS passwords from AFS Light to

the AFS Light Gateway.  In order for AFS Light users to obtain AFS tokens

when using the Simplified Chinese version of Microsoft Windows 98,

encryption in AFS must be disabled.

To disable encryption in AFS, add the following line to your Windows

autoexec.bat file:

set AFS_RPC_ENCRYPT=OFF

Note that disabling encryption introduces a potential security risk

because AFS passwords are transmitted to the AFS Light Gateway in an

unencrypted form when tokens are obtained.







Windows NT with Service Pack 6 Is Now Supported



The Client, Server, and Control Center components of AFS for Windows can

be installed on Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 with Service Pack 4, Service Pack 5,

or Service Pack 6.







AFS for Windows Supplemental Documentation



The Supplemental Documentation component of AFS for Windows is only available

online if the AFS Supplemental Documentation option was chosen when AFS for Windows

was installed on your system.  (AFS Supplemental Documentation is not an option when 

installing AFS Light.) Note that documentation is also available directly

from the AFS for Windows CD-ROM, in the CD:\Documentation directory, where CD

is the letter of your CD-ROM drive.





Refer to the AFS for Windows Release Notes for additional product information.
