    ============================ Description ============================
    
    DoS caused by buffer overflow abend running special script against 
    login.
    
    For security reasons, NCPIP.NLM and JSTCP.NLM were renamed to 
    NCPIP.OLD and JSTCP.OLD. NCPIP.NLM should never be loaded on a 
    PUBLIC interface unless port 524 is blocked by a firewall, even 
    if using the NCP exclude options. JSTCP.NLM posted a listener on 
    port 6901 that is not needed by iChain. 
    
    User could access a restricted/secure page without authenticating.
    
    Numerous other updates are included in this field patch.  See the 
    Technical Information Document (TID) for further details.
