gskver, ikeyman, gskcapicmd, and gskcmd scripts do not work in  
IBM HTTP Server 9.0.0.1.  They produce errors similar to the

PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
 Users of IBM HTTP Server 9.0.0.1 on
distributed
systems.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
gskver, ikeyman, gskcapicmd, and gskcmd
scripts do not work in IBM HTTP Server
9.0.0.1.

RECOMMENDATION:
 Apply this fix after applying 9.0.0.1.

An expected fixpack post-install action was not automatically
run in
9.0.0.1, leaving variables unsubstituted in many shell scripts.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
The interim fix for this APAR causes the existing files to be   
re-substituted. In subsequent fixpacks, the substitution        
process will be automatic.                                      
                                                                
The fix for this issue is targetted for IHS fixpacks:           
 - 9.0.0.2
