+
+<h4>Summary of Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+The default Network Server security policy has been simplified.
+</p>
+
+
+
+<h4>Symptoms Seen by Applications Affected by Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+If you start the Network Server without specifying a security
+manager, the Network Server will install a default Java
+security manager that enforces a basic policy. This security
+policy is now simpler than it was in previous releases.
+</p>
+
+
+
+<h4>Incompatibilities with Previous Release</h4>
+
+<p>
+If your Network Server deployment has particular security
+requirements, the default security policy is not right for
+you. You should instead deploy the Network Server with a
+customized security policy file, as described in the
+Security guide.
+</p>
+
+
+
+<h4>Rationale for Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+A simpler default security policy file is preferable, as it
+is easier to understand.
+</p>
+
+
+
+<h4>Application Changes Required</h4>
+
+<p>
+Please review the "Configuring Java security" topic in
+the Security guide for a detailed description of how to
+configure the Network Server security policy.

+<h4>Summary of Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+COMMAND_TESTCONNECTION no longer has database open support.
+</p>
+
+
+
+<h4>Symptoms Seen by Applications Affected by Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+The Network Server's COMMAND_TESTCONNECTION operation, which is
+used by the Network Server 'ping' feature, contained code which
+could attempt to open a database specified as part of the 'ping'
+request. This code has been removed.
+</p>
+
+
+<h4>Rationale for Change</h4>
+
+<p>
+It is not necessary to attempt to open a database in order
+to ping the Network Server.
