Trustix Secure Linux Bugfix Advisory #2003-0032

Package name:      bind, cyrus-imapd, cyrus-sasl, grub, hwdata, initscripts,
                   kernel, make, mdadm, ncurses, postfix, ppp, rp-pppoe,
                   samba, setup, stunnel
Summary:           Catchup bugfixes
Date:              2003-09-17
Affected versions: TSL 2.0

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
  * bind:
    BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is an implementation of the DNS
    (Domain Name System) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named),
    which resolves host names to IP addresses, and a resolver library
    (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS).  A DNS
    server allows clients to name resources or objects and share the
    information with other network machines.  The named DNS server can be
    used on workstations as a caching name server, but is generally only
    needed on one machine for an entire network.

  * cyrus-imapd:
    The Cyrus IMAP server is a scaleable enterprise mail system
    designed for use from small to large enterprise environments using
    standards-based technologies.

  * cyrus-sasl:
    The cyrus-sasl package contains the Cyrus implementation of SASL.
    SASL is the Simple Authentication and Security Layer, a method for
    adding authentication support to connection-based protocols.
 
  * grub:
    GRUB (Grand Unified Boot Loader) is an experimental boot loader
    capable of booting into most free operating systems - Linux, FreeBSD,
    NetBSD, GNU Mach, and others as well as most commercial operating
    systems.

  * hwdata:
    hwdata contains various hardware identification and configuration data,
    such as the pci.ids database, the XFree86 Cards and MonitorsDb databases.

  * initscripts:
    The initscripts package contains the basic system scripts used to boot
    your Trustix Secure Linux system, change runlevels, and shut the system down
    cleanly.  Initscripts also contains the scripts that activate and
    deactivate most network interfaces.

  * kernel:
    The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
    Trustix Secure Linux operating system.  The kernel handles the basic
    functions of the operating system:  memory allocation, process
    allocation, device input and output, etc.

  * make:
    A GNU tool for controlling the generation of executables and other
    non-source files of a program from the program's source files.  Make
    allows users to build and install packages without any significant
    knowledge about the details of the build process.  The details about
    how the program should be built are provided for make in the program's
    makefile.

  * mdadm:
    mdadm is a program that can be used to create, manage, and monitor
    Linux MD (Software RAID) devices.
    As such is provides similar functionality to the raidtools packages.
    The particular differences to raidtools is that mdadm is a single
    program, and it can perform (almost) all functions without a
    configuration file (that a config file can be used to help with
    some common tasks).

  * ncurses:
    The curses library routines are a terminal-independent method of
    updating character screens with reasonable optimization.  The ncurses
    (new curses) library is a freely distributable replacement for the
    discontinued 4.4BSD classic curses library.

  * postfix:
    Postfix is an alternative to the sendmail mailer daemon. Postfix attempts
    to be fast, easy to administer, and secure, while at the same time being
    sendmail compatible enough to not upset existing users.

  * ppp:
    The ppp package contains the PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) daemon
    and documentation for PPP support.  The PPP protocol provides a
    method for transmitting datagrams over serial point-to-point links.

  * rp-pppoe:
    PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is a protocol used by
    many ADSL Internet Service Providers. Roaring Penguin has a free
    client for Linux systems to connect to PPPoE service providers.

  * samba:
    Samba provides an SMB server which can be used to provide network
    services to SMB (sometimes called "Lan Manager") clients, including
    various versions of MS Windows, OS/2, and other Linux machines. Samba
    uses NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) protocols and does NOT need NetBEUI
    (Microsoft Raw NetBIOS frame) protocol.

  * setup:
    The setup package contains a set of important system configuration and
    setup files, such as passwd, group, and profile.

  * stunnel:
    stunnel is a socket wrapper which can be used to give ordinary
    applications SSL (secure sockets layer) support. For example, it
    can be used in conjunction with a imapd to create a SSL secure IMAP
    server.

Problem description:
  All these packages had minor packaging errors in them.  One noticable
  exception:  If you use Postfix and SASL, read the documentation on the
  new configuration layout.

  bind: Bugfixing the jail, now even save the slave zones.
  cyrus-imapd: New upstream fixes a few bugs we can live without.
  cyrus-sasl:  Clean up .so's.
               Change deprecated -H option to -O in init script.
               Reformat man page to make it readable.
  grub:        Removed info pages, and provide html version.
               Added some build requirements.
  hwdata:      Synced pci.ids/pcitable with Redhat's hwdata-0.89.0-1.1.
               Added aic79xx to hwdata-module-info.
  initscripts: Added the auto-started raid check. Prints OK on an already
                 active md.
  kernel:      Changed CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD=m to CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD=y to support
                 raid autodetect.
  make:        Readded html page generated from make.texi
  mdadm:       New upstream: 1.3.0, allows creation of very large md devices.
  ncurses:     Own /usr/include/ncurses, to get permissions right.
  postfix:     Fix PAM and SASL issues.
  ppp:         Minor cleanup.
  rp-pppoe:    Change startup sequence to start early.
  samba:       Added --with-winbind-auth-challenge option on request.
  setup:       Updated /etc/services (gnatsd)
  stunnel:     Now create /var/run/stunnel.
