Verification Results
--------------------
Defect/APAR     Test                                                    Status
-----------     ----                                                    ------
APAR IX87674    Before applying this patch, distribute a very large     PASS
                file package (>100MB) through an NT gateway repeater
                to a UNIX endpoint and time the duration of the
                distribution.  Apply the patch, then repeat the above
                distribution (same file package, same machines) and
                time it again.  Compare the two times to verify the
                speed increase with the patch.


Regression Tests
----------------
- Installed via SIS, wpatch, and the Tivoli Desktop.                    PASS
- Performed interregion distributions.                                  PASS
- Performed "normal" distributions (i.e. no error conditions, etc...).  PASS
- Distributions w/error conditions                                      PASS
- Distributions w/timeout conditions                                    PASS
- Distributed file packages both less than and greater than 16KB
  in size under the conditions mentioned above                          PASS
- Distributed file packages source hosted across TMR boundaries         PASS
- Heavily exercised wrpt, wdistrib, wdistfp, wcrtfpblock, wdistfpblock,
  wrmfp, and wrmfpblock.                                                PASS
- Ran automated Framework tests.                                        PASS
