Known Issues in Release 1
- Some default installations of 64-bit Linux do not automatically include 32-bit versions of libxml and libz and thus need to be installed by hand.
- Some default installations of 64-bit Linux do not automatically include a 32-bit libgcc_s which is required by pthreads_cancel(). If not present, the library can be installed by hand.
- Occasional segmentation-fault on UNIX.
- New and improved Windows Vista security makes running ntsetup and cartographertray a real chore.
- Automatic upgrades sometimes (very rarely) fail because agent engine takes too long to stop and re-start.
- Windows use of reserved ports during dynamic binding fools some dependency determination. For example, an application may ask for a dynamically-bound TCP port and be assigned the well-known and/or reserved port of 1812 thus triggering a false Radius dependency.
- Dependencies determined via TCP port allocation may be missed of the connections are short-lived.
- XML DTDs or Schemas are needed for XMP and MIBs.
- IPv6 support is included but still needs more work with respect to DNS.
- NAT'ing routers obstruct inward-bound XMP communication.
