HULFT-29725

If the sending-side host name internally obtained in HULFT is 68 bytes, a transfer error occurs

Phenomenon

If the sending-side host name is not registered in the Host Information, HULFT internally performs reverse lookup of the host name.

If the sending-side host name obtained by the reverse host name lookup is 68 bytes, a transfer error occurs.

Severity level

B: high

Affected versions

From Ver.7.0.0 to Ver.10.2.0A

Modified version

Ver.10.2.1

Condition to reproduce

This phenomenon occurs when all of the following conditions are met:

• The sending-side host name is not registered in the Host Information.

• The sending-side host name on the receiving-side host (local host), which is obtained from the reverse host name lookup performed internally in HULFT, is 68 bytes.

• The version of the receiving-side host (local host) is between HULFT Ver.7.0.0 and HULFT Ver.8.5.0, and one of the following is specified for IP Version (ipversion) in the System Environment Settings:

  • 4/6 (Use IPv4 first when connecting to the remote host, try with IPv6 if connection fails; use both IPv4 and IPv6 when being connected to)

  • 6/4 (Use IPv6 first when connecting to the remote host, try with IPv4 if connection fails; use both IPv4 and IPv6 when being connected to)

  • 6 (Use IPv6 when connecting to the remote host; use only IPv6 when being connected to)

Alternative workaround

Check Local Host Name registered in the System Environment Setting on the sending-side host and set it in the Host Information on the receiving-side host (local host).

Execute the transfer after setting the Host Information.

Status description

Even if the above conditions are met, the transfer ends successfully.
