extra security test failures testing XP with servicepack 2 beta

Testbase : /net/jqa.ireland/jqa4/mantis/Security
JDK : 1.4.2_05b01 (any 1.4.2)
OS : winXP PRO with Service pack 2 RC installed

service pack 2 beta is available at :
/net/latte.ireland/export/home/XP_SP2RC/xpsp2.exe
======================================================

some permissions tests are failing compared to a winXP run without Service pack2 RC
SP2 RC introduces more security enhancements into XP.
I have not disabled firewall since the default service pack install
is more representative of a customer's environment.

MKS took kit also fails to kill a large number of the java processes causing
a carry on effect whereby later tests fail due to ports already being binded.

I've attached a TongaSetup.ini file and the work directory
here's a list of some of the most relevant failures :

Permissions/acceptServerSocketTest execute_script acceptServerSocketTest
Permissions/connectMulticastSocketTest execute_script connectMulticastSocketTest
Permissions/listenDatagramSocketTest execute_script listenDatagramSocketTest
Permissions/receiveDataGramSocketTest execute_script receiveDataGramSocketTest
Permissions/joinGroupMulticastTest execute_script joinGroupMulticastTest
Permissions/sendDataGramSocketTest execute_script sendDataGramSocketTest
Permissions/listenServerSocketTest execute_script listenServerSocketTest
Permissions/leaveGroupMulticastTest execute_script leaveGroupMulticastTest
Permissions/listenMulticastSocketTest execute_script listenMulticastSocketTest
Permissions/sendMulticastSocketTest execute_script sendMulticastSocketTest

These tests pass on XP PRO without SP 2 beta installed
These tests fail on XP PRO with servive pack2 beta but pass with win XP home and SP2 beta

Hi Bill,

the link pointed to by Ajit does contain the testfailures (and most tlog files)
it's at

http://latte.ireland.sun.com/results/xpsp2/142_05/security/xpPro/run3/

Do you have access to an XP Pro PC ?
the setup is quite simple. A link to SP2 RC is provided in bug report.
It would be worth installing locally for debugging purposes.

Regards,
Sean.

=======================================================

Tests pass when run on a newly installed WinXP box.
on further analysis, it seems that MKS toolkit 8.6 is breaking SP2 RC and java.
downgrading MKS to version 8.0 lets the failing tests pass.

MKS versions can be found at /net/latte.ireland/export/home1/MKSToolkit
This looks similar to bug 5051136
