Hi,
I have recently made a bunch of changes to Phoenix. Some of them are listed
below. The most important changes are that;
* a NoopSystemManager is installed by default rather than Remote Agent.
* SecurityManager is installed VM wide or not at all and to disable it you
need to set OS environment variable PHOENIX_SECURE=false
I haven't tested the new win32 .bat script and I would appreciate someone
else having a look at it to make sure it still works. It *should* work or be
very close to working ;)
