perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

Hi All,

NOTE: If you've installed the ndt-server-apache RPM package before, you will 
need to run "yum reinstall ndt-server-apache" after this upgrade. This step 
won't be necessary during future upgrades.

We would like to announce the availability of NDT version 3.7.0.1. This is a 
minor release that contains a couple bugfixes for problems users were 
encountering:

 - fakewww could have problems restarting on reboot or log rotation
 - The "Test Again" functionality in the Web GUI could fail with the Java 
Applet backend in some configurations

A source tarball is available at 
http://software.internet2.edu/sources/ndt/ndt-3.7.0.1.tar.gz

You can find RPMs at the Internet2 RPM repository at 
http://software.internet2.edu/ . Existing users that have auto-updates 
configured should download the changes in the next 24 hours. Those without 
auto-updates can run 'yum update' by hand to get the latest version. To use 
Apache instead of fakewww, install the package ‘ndt-server-apache’ using yum, 
and run “service ndt restart” and “service httpd restart”.

Thanks again to all our testers and those that provided feedback.

If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them to 


Cheers,
Aaron
