Beta 2 was made available May 16, 1998.  Here's what's changed:
 
- An APPC/VM line driver has been added.  The new line driver
  supports global, local, and private resources.
 
- Configuration parameters MSG_NOMAP and SPL_NOMAP are
  obsolete.
 
- New configuration parameters have been added for handling
  the case where a line driver is not able to map the
  connectivity-specific user ID via the user ID mapping file.
  The parameters, line drivers, and behaviors are:
 
  Parameter       LD           If OFF                If ON
  ---------       --           ------                -----
  NOMAP_SPOOL     SPOOL        Per old SPL_NOMAP     Per old SPL_NOMAP
  NOMAP_MSG       MSG          Per old MSG_NOMAP     Per old MSG_NOMAP
  NOMAP_TCP       TCP          Closes socket         Uses '$UNKNOWN'
  NOMAP_UDP       UDP          Ignores datagram      Uses '$UNKNOWN'
  NOMAP_IUCV      IUCV         Severs path           Uses IPVMID of EIB
  NOMAP_APPC      APPC         Severs conversation   Uses IPVMID of EIB
 
  For more information about these, read the revised manual.
 
- Fixed a few minor bugs in TCP and IUCV line drivers.
 
- ssCacheFileOpen now correctly supports the caching of BFS
  files.  Some of the open flag names are now different and
  all of the flags now have different numeric values.  See
  SSPLXCAC COPY and SSASMCAC MACRO.
 
- Sample HTTP server now serves BFS files correctly.  Many new
  translation types were added.  See SSTEST README in the
  VMARC archive.
