TID #10066856 - Error: " -649 Insufficient_buffer" after eDirectory 8.6.x is Applied

After installing eDirectory 8.6, on NetWare, the server begins reporting -649 errors.
___________________________________________

TID #10066708 - Install of eDirectory 8.6.1 is slow

The eDirectory 8.6.1 install performs much better when using JVM 1.3.1  By default, NetWare 5.1 uses JVM 1.2.
___________________________________________

TID #10068709 -128 Remote error running DSRepair | Report Sync Status

-128 errors appear when running Report Sync Status from DSREPAIR.  The -128 errors may also show up in the DSREPAIR.LOG file after running a Local Database Repair.  This is not a serious problem and can be remedied by increasing the maximum number of file locks on the server.  Be sure to look at TID #10025577 as well to make sure the error isn't being caused by old Client versions on the network.  
___________________________________________

TID #10069572 - Unable to Administer Security Objects

After applying NW51SP4 to a server with eDirectory 8.6.2, ConsoleOne does not respond when attempting to administer security objects.
___________________________________________

TID #10069344 - Applying the DirXML 1.0 patch for NetWare 5.1 running eDirectory 8.6.1

DirXML 1.0 works just fine on a NetWare 5.1 server running eDirectory 8.6.1 or higher.  However, there is a patch you need to install in order to prevent possible problems after you have upgraded to eDirectory 8.6.1 on your NetWare 5.1 server.  See the solution link for more information.
___________________________________________

TID #10054483 - Loss of file system trustees following migration to eDirectory 8. 

Confirm prior to migration with DSBROWSE.NLM on the server to be migrated, that the volume objects are held locally and that the entry ID is valid.  If it is found that they are not held locally then: " DSREPAIR.NLM > Advanced Options > Check Volume Objects and Trustees " must be performed
