General info
------------

     You will need to have a License PAK with a release date after the date of
  PMDFSHR.EXE or libpmdf.so to run PMDF.  Note that this may apply to other
  images as well.

     Patches may be obtained from the anonymous FTP account on
  ftp.pmdf.process.com.  Use FTP to connect to the host ftp.pmdf.process.com
  and login as the user anonymous.  Use your e-mail address as the login
  password.

     Move to the pmdf_67_patches subdirectory:

        ftp> cd pmdf_67_patches

     Patches will be located in platform-specific sub-trees, as follows:

        Platform        Subdirectory
        --------        ------------
        OpenVMS         vms
        Linux           linux
        Solaris/SPARC   solaris-sparc

     When FTPing images, be sure to FTP them as binary.  Before retrieving
  such an image with the GET command, be sure to put your FTP into binary
  mode with a command such as TYPE IMAGE or TYPE BINARY.

  This update handles EINTR errors for the legacy POP/IMAP servers.
  Clients would report that the connection had closed.



Installation
------------
Linux

        Before installing a new libpmdf.so, issue the following command:

                # pmdf shutdown

        Failure to issue the above command could result in the current
        processes not recognizing commands (i.e. restart and shutdown) with
        the new libpmdf.so in place.

        Download the appropriate .zip file. Use 'unzip' to extract the
	files.

        Move to the /pmdf/lib directory to do the extraction.

	 > cd /pmdf/lib
         > unzip libpmdf67-x03.zip

        After the files are unzipped into their proper directories,
        ensure that the ownership and protection on each are set correctly:

                # chown pmdf:bin /pmdf/lib/libpmdf.so
                # chmod 755 /pmdf/lib/libpmdf.so

        In some cases, new versions of libpmdf.so may alter the format of
        compiled configurations. When this happens recompilation is also
        necessary:

                # pmdf cnbuild

        Failure to recompile the configuration after installing new versions
        of libpmdf.so may lead to "compiled configuration version mismatch"
        errors.

        Next, be sure to start PMDF by issuing the following command:

                # pmdf startup
