Silent update for IBM Lotus Domino 7
by Volker Weber
IBM has issued a silent update for Domino 7. Let's compare the Linux/Intel version. The old file was c86isna.tar the new one is c86wsna.tar. Comparing MD5 checksums of all files within the archives renders this message:
./fg0/setup.exe: FAILED
./fg27/NetscapeDOLSPlugin_linuxff.xpi: FAILED
./fg27/NetscapeDOLSPlugin_linux32.xpi: FAILED
./fg90/stlinks.cab: FAILED
./fg90/stlinks.jar: FAILED
Setup.exe is IBM Lotus Domino Access for Outlook Setup, the others are Domino Offline Services and Sametime Links.

it's a change to the certificate used to sign one of the applications. that's it.

If it warrants a new part number, it must be significant enough to be communicated.

i'm not sure why the part number changed. but there was a good reason for the certifier change, unfortunately i can't write about it publicly.
