<h1 id="whatsnew">What's new for V5R4</h1>
|
||
|
<p>iSeries NetServer™ has the following performance and scalability enhancements and new
|
||
|
functions for V5R4:</p>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li><span class="bold">Threading support:</span> To increase performance, NetServer now supports the use of pools of threads to process client
|
||
|
requests. The new QZLSFILET job handles threaded requests.</li>
|
||
|
<li><span class="bold">Opportunistic locks:</span> Clients have the option of
|
||
|
caching application requests to reduce network traffic and server overhead.</li>
|
||
|
<li><span class="bold">LAN Manager password hash:</span> When enabled, it allows
|
||
|
Windows clients to authenticate with the less secure (not case sensitive)
|
||
|
LAN Manager password hash even if the more secure (case sensitive) NT password
|
||
|
hash is also provided and does not match.</li>
|
||
|
<li><span class="bold">Message authentication/signing support:</span> For more
|
||
|
secure communications between the client and server, NetServer now supports
|
||
|
connection request signing. Signing requests provides improved protection
|
||
|
from the following types of attacks: connection hijacking, downgrade attack,
|
||
|
rogue server and spoofing by counterfeit servers, active message modification,
|
||
|
and replay attacks. See <a href="rzahlmst02.htm#netservesignreq">Require clients to sign requests</a> for more information.</li>
|
||
|
<li><span class="bold">Windows-style messages:</span> The server can be configured
|
||
|
to alert users who are running Microsoft Messenger or similar service using
|
||
|
the iSeries Navigator graphical user interface (GUI). See <a href="rzahlwinmsgs.htm#winpopup">Use Windows-style messages with iSeries NetServer</a> for
|
||
|
more information.</li></ul><img src="deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" />
