LIKEWISE OPEN 5.0 RELEASE NOTES
====================================================

*IMPORTANT: Before you install Likewise Open, read the instructions 
in the Likewise Open 5.0 Installation and Administration Guide at

http://www.likewisesoftware.com/resources/documentation_library/

The guide contains important information about requirements, patches, 
installation options, configurations, UID-GID management, and troubleshooting.



====================================================
Mac OS X
--------

On Leopard, changing a domain user's password from the passwd utility will not 
work.  This is a known issue.  The password can be successfully changed from the 
System Preferences->Accounts dialog box->Change Password utility.

-------- 

When you are logged in as a domain user, you will not be able to su to 
root.  Instead, ssh into the root account.




====================================================
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES 10 SP1
------------------------------------------

Issue: During the domain join process, the button for system shutdown might 
disappear.

Reason: A part of the domain join operation requires that the dbus process be 
shutdown and restarted to fully register Likewise software components. As such, 
the Shutdown button disappears as it is tied to the previous running instance of 
the dbus process. This is issue is an unavoidable side-effect of restarting the 
dbus process.

Workaround: If the Interactively logged on user logs off the system and logs 
back on, the new instance of the dbus process will be applied to the user's 
session and the system shutdown button will be restored.




==================================================== 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux RHEL 2.1 
---------------------------------- 
Issue: Error occurring while logging 
onto system with Likewise software for Active Directory account logon.

Reason: The older system provided PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) 
pam_krb5.so segmentation faults (crashes) on the RHEL2.1 platform. This module 
is provided by RedHat and is not a part of the Likewise software installation.

Workaround: This crash is triggered because Likewise software configures the 
Kerberos keytab file and krb5.conf file during domain join operations. Likewise 
does not enable this module, and does not require it. The system admin of the 
system can edit the PAM configuration files and remove the references to this 
module by commenting out the entries in:

/etc/pam.d/system-auth

#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig
is run.

auth        required      /lib/security/pam_env.so
auth        sufficient    /lib/security/pam_unix.so
likeauth nullok
#auth        sufficient    /lib/security/pam_krb5.so
use_first_pass
auth        sufficient    /lib/security/pam_ldap.so
use_first_pass
