ENHANCEMENTS:

FIXES: 
This patch addresses the following two issues reported in the Session 
Allocation Manager v2.1.0 Web Server:

Issue 1 
If Security Groups that have been added into SAM are renamed in Active 
Directory, two issues may occur, as follows:

1) SAM Administrators may be unable to access the Web Admin console to correct 
the renamed groups.

2) SAM Users who were not added directly into SAM and who are not direct 
members of any group added to SAM, are not able to log in after groups are 
renamed in Active Directory.

Applying this update enables the SAM Administrator to log into SAM console to 
manage out-of-sync data (the names of security groups that were changed), and 
to provide users in those affected security groups with the correct message 
that SAM is unable to authenticate them, instead of displaying "Objects not 
found."


Issue 2
In some Session Allocation Manager v2.1.0 installations, after rebooting the 
SAM Server, logon attempts to the Web Administrator may fail. The SAM Client 
and the Web Client may also fail. In some instances, repeated reboots of the 
SAM Server correct the issue. Applying this patch to a SAM Server 2.1.0 
installation prevents and corrects this issue.

PREREQUISITES: 
- SAM 2.1.0 Server installation

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
