I get this "IBM My notifications - Operating Systems" email from IBM.
In it is a section "2. IBM i 7.1: Urgent support notifications
(Recommended by IBM support)"
So I click on that and I see:
Security Bulletin: IBM i is affected by the following SAMBA
vulnerabilities (CVE-2015-0240)
March 23, 2015
Security vulnerabilities have been discovered in SAMBA..
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1020638
So I click on that and I see:
The issue can be fixed by applying the SAMBA PTF to the IBM i System.
The IBM i PTF numbers are:
Release 7.2 – SI56213
Now I am thinking no big deal, just download and apply this PTF. Wrong.
When I read this cover letter I see that I have to use jar to unzip a file
and run a bunch of other stuff.
Why do they do this crap with PTF's for stuff like Samba and WAS? Heck I
don't even know if I'm using Samba. How do I tell? And how do I "restart
the Samba server"?
