Problems Fixed in This Release
The following problem was fixed in PC-DCE 5.1.4 (and also
in 5.0.8 and 4.0.16):
- Intercell Trust: The dcecp command registry connect,
which is used to establish a trust relationship between
two cells, reported that the security server of the foreign
cell was not available. This was due to the Global Directory
Agent Daemon (GDAD) failing to find the DNS servers on the
network. The GDAD now uses a more robust procedure to acquire
the IP address of DNS servers and connect to them.
The following problem occurred in and was fixed in PC-DCE
5.1.4 only:
- Installation: The installer reported "Error: Unable to
open license file (Runtime)" if there was no valid license
for PC-DFS, regardless of whether PC-DFS was selected for
installation. This problem has been fixed.

Applying PC-DCE 5.1.4
To upgrade to PC-DCE 5.1.4:
- Download PC-DCE 5.1.5. (See "Obtaining PC-DCE
5.1.4" above for download links.)
- Unzip the files and then run Setup. You are given the
choice to Modify, Repair, or Remove kits. Choose Repair.
Your present installation will be updated to the new version.
- Reboot the machine. The update does not take effect until
the machine has been rebooted.
Note: If you are updating a host running
the Security or CDS Server as a replica, it may take a
minute or two for the daemons to resynchronize themselves
with the master. Initially, the PC-DCE Service Panel may
say the daemons are unavailable. After about one minute
(or possibly longer for larger cells), click Refresh and
the display will show that the servers are running normally.
