                     Mandriva Linux Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           pwauth
 Advisory ID:            MDKA-2005:023
 Date:                   May 4th, 2005

 Affected versions:	 10.2
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A bug in the pwauth package prevented it from working with apache
 because it assumes that apache has a static uid of 48, whereas apache's
 uid is dynamically assigned at install-time.
 
 The updated package have been fixed to allow pwauth to work with apache
 regardless of the uid.
