As of November 1st versions 2.1.12 or lower of  the CASTOR clients will be deprecated. They will then progressively cease to function in the following 2 weeks.

All users are invited to upgrade to version 2.1.13-5 or higher to ensure uninterrupted functionality.

To ensure that your machine is correctly setup to access CASTOR please check the versions of packages castor-ns-client and castor-lib and upgrade them if necessary.

If you are running Scientific Linux you can execute the command: rpm -q castor-ns-client castor-lib on your terminal; if any of the versions printed in the output is less than 2.1.13-5, please upgrade with yum upgrade 'castor*'.

If you are using a different distribution, binary and source RPMs can be found at http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/cern.
