    Annex Communications Server R7.1B and Annex Host Tools R14.2 Release Notes

302566-A  Rev. 00

Other Limitations

The NA and Admin command set port speed 57600 produces an 
erroneous return when the hardware does not support that speed. 
Admin produces invalid structure for parameter :speed: 7. NA 
produces Netadm error: erpc abort; invalid parameter value.

The parameter need_dsr is ignored for SLIP and PPP lines.

The Annex ignores parameters after rs232AsyncPortAutobaud that 
are contained within the same SNMP Set request. The work-around 
is to insure that the rs232AsyncPortAutobaud set request is at the end 
of the set request packet or is alone in the set request.

Problems Resolved with this Release

SPR 11150 The acp_logfile is now year 2000 compliant. 

The year 2000 is now displayed as "00" rather than "100". 
If you are not installing on one of the supported host 
platforms and you use the acp_logfile for accounting 
purposes, you should be aware that after 991231 (which 
represents 1999/12/31) midnight, the entry in the 
acp_logfile will appear as 1000101 instead of 000101. If 
you have scripts that use this information for accounting, 
you need to modify those scripts to handle this properly.

Aprint now works properly.
