                 Administrator privilege
       Change:
                 Added privilege for Windows Vista to run only under
                 administrator
       Impact:
                 Non-admin user unable to run this application


Version 6.1.7 (July 26, 2006)
----------------------------------


   Fixes:
   =====
   1.  Problem:  CQ25705 
                 BaspSCfg flags error when restore 8 nic memeber SLB team.

       Cause:
                 Previous version returned an error when total number of
                 physical adapters in the team was >= 8. 
       Change:
                 Corrected the related function to return an error only
                 when the total number of physical adapters in the team
                 is > 8.
       Impact: 
                 The maximum number of physical adapters allowed for a
                 team is 8.

                 Team configuration for live link.

   Fixes:
   =====
   1.  Problem:  CQ23296 
                 BaspSCfg did not allow duplicate DNS and WINS IP
                 addresses.
       Cause:
                 Previous version required all IPs to be unique
                 within each team configuration.
       Change:
                 Modified internal algorithm to relax the IP address
                 checking.
       Impact: 
                 DNS and WINS IPs are allowed to be the same.
 
   2.  Problem:  CQ23874 
                 BaspSCfg failed to add an INTELL NIC for teaming.
       Cause:
                 Wrong handle was passed to BmapiGetPhyNic().
       Change:
                 Fixed the coding error.
       Impact: 
                 All supported NICs including non-broadcom NICs are 
                 qualified to be in the SLB team without VLAN.

   3.  Problem:  CQ24344 
                 Windows error dialog box was seen while running BaspSCfg
                 from command line without parameters. 
       Cause:
                 This was caused by a NULL pointer along the program flow.
       Change:
                 Fixed the coding error.
       Impact: 
                 Running BaspSCfg from command line without parameters should
                 not cause the above problem.


Version 6.1.5 (September 22, 2005)
----------------------------------

   
   Enhancements:
   =============

                 requested.
       Impact:
                 The teton based adapters are allowed in the teaming 
                 configuration.

   2.  Request: 
                 To require administrator privilege for changing the 
                 teaming configuration.
       Change:
                 Only allow users with administrator privilege to create,
                 change/remove the team configurations.
       Impact:
                 The administrator privilege is required for changing
                 the team configurations but not required for the '-save' 
                 and '-help' commands.
 

Version 6.1.4 (May 11, 2005)
----------------------------------


   Fixes:
   =====
   1.  Problem: CQ12888 
                 BaspSCfg.exe properties showed incorrect file 
                 version.
       Cause:
                 FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION in BaspSCfg.rc 
                 were not updated to include the correct release

   Fixes:
   =====
   1.  Problem: CQ12872 
                 BACS does not show -freq entered by BaspSCfg.
       Cause:
                 BaspSCfg v6.1.2 accepts the input units for -freq
                 and -retry_freq in seconds while BMAPI expects
                 them in milliseconds.
       Change:
                 Changed input units for -freq and -retry_freq from 
                 seconds to milliseconds.
       Impact: 
                 -freq and -retry_freq parameters for the live link

                 modified.
   
   Fixes:
   ======
   1.  Request:  
                 DNS, WSP, WSS, and gateway should be sharable
                 among teams. 
       Cause:
                 The program reports errors if any ip address is
                 not unique among all teams.
       Change:
                 Allow the above ip addresses to be sharable
                 among teams.
       Impact: 
                 DNS, WSP, WSS, and gateway ip addresses should
                 be sharable among all teams.

   2.  Request:  
                 Failed to create a team when no IP_CFG or 
                 VLAN_CFG is specified.
       Cause:
                 The program did to request one virtual
                 adapter to be created with the above
                 configuration.
       Change:
                 Allow one virtual adapter to be created when
                 no IP_CFG or VLAN_CFG is specified.
       Impact: 
                 A team with one virtual adapter should be
                 created when no IP_CFG or VLAN_CFG is specified.


Version 6.1.1 (April 7, 2005)
----------------------------------


   Fixes:
   =====
   1.  Problem:  
                 Live link only supports SLB team type 0. 
       Cause:
                 The implementation accepted team type 0 
                 and 4 for the live link support. 
       Change:
                 Removed team type 4 from the live link support.
       Impact: 
                 Live link should only support SLB team type 0.

                 baspSCfg 6.0.11 does not save or restore IP 
                 configuration correctly
       Cause:
                 Windows CIM providers return NULL for WINS 
                 Primary and Secondary on W2K3 instead of 
                 127.0.0.0 on W2K when there is no setting for 
                 WINS Primary and Secondary.
       Change:
                 The save logic does not handle the NULL situation

                 System does not get enough time to configure.
       Change:
                 There is a timing issue when trying to configure 
                 multiple teams with mulitiple IP, Gateway, DNS, 
                 and WINS addresses.  The system needs more time
                 to complete the process.  Give system more time
                 and the problem is resolved.
       Impact:
