[comp.os.vms] Request info about V4.5 update

MCGUIRE@GRIN2.BITNET (06/10/87)

I know about the following changes in or problems with VMS under V4.5.  The
information is from the info-vax readership, the release notes, and DSIN.
Is there anyone who can help me refine my list?  Confirm or deny?  Thanks
in advance!

------------------------------ Begin List ------------------------------
1. New SMBSRVSHR.EXE gets put in the wrong place (I've gotten the
   instructions for fixing it).

2. PRINT/PAGE=(x,y) prints the whole file rather than the range specified.

3. A bug in the XQP can corrupt a disk's index file (I have the replacement
   images).

4. The NODRIVER is still unreliable.

5. The BACKUP `RESTART' option now requires the operator to wait to load
   the replacement tape until BACKUP prompts for it.

6. An RMS error prevents rewinding files if the file is opened for shared
   access (at least with FORTRAN).

7. The VMS MICROVMS V4.4/V4.5 mandatory update need not be reinstalled
   after V4.5 is installed.  (I've already installed it under V4.4.)

8. The DIFFERENCES utility goes into an infinite loop under certain special
   conditions.
