Improvements and fixes

This security update includes improvements and fixes that were a part of update KB4034670 (released August 15, 2017) and resolves the following issues:

  • Addressed issue where applications that have LDAP referral chasing options enabled use a TCP dynamic port connection that doesn’t close until the applications close or the calling OS restarts.
