08/14/2000 & 08/25/2000 --Connie Security RPMS - new install pam-0.72-20.i386.rpm gpm-1.19.3-0.6.x.i386.rpm gpm-devel-1.19.3-0.6.x.i386.rpm netscape-common-4.74-0.6.2.i386.rpm netscape-communicator-4.74-0.6.2.i386.rpm netscape-navigator-4.74-0.6.2.i386.rpm rpm-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm rpm-build-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm rpm-devel-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm rpm-python-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm mailx-8.1.1-16.i386.rpm perl-5.00503-11.i386.rpm popt-1.5-9.6x.i386.rpm nfs-utils-0.1.9.1-1f.i386.rpm Fermi modified to NOT start "nfslockd" at boot so to be compatible with how "knfsd-clients" did it, which we are replacing. Note that the knfsd and knfsd-clients rpms are now both in the new nfs-utils rpm. This was done by the nfs-utils maintainer and not by RedHat or Fermi. Security RPMS -- updates for autorpm pam-0.72-20.i386.rpm gpm-1.19.3-0.6.x.i386.rpm gpm-devel-1.19.3-0.6.x.i386.rpm netscape-common-4.74-0.6.2.i386.rpm netscape-communicator-4.74-0.6.2.i386.rpm netscape-navigator-4.74-0.6.2.i386.rpm These will not upgrade as usual. Note that these are security updates but do NOT fix the recently found JAVA security bug. rpm-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm rpm-build-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm rpm-devel-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm rpm-python-3.0.5-9.6x.i386.rpm A new version of rpm is required to install the new perl rpm. rpm-python was not on 6.1.1 but since it is part of the new 3.0.5 version I have included it. Since it did not exist it will not upgrade anything, it is here as a courtesy. mailx-8.1.1-16.i386.rpm perl-5.00503-11.i386.rpm popt-1.5-9.6x.i386.rpm knfsd-1.4.7-8f1.i386.rpm knfsd-clients-1.4.7-8f1.i386.rpm Fermi created both "knfsd and knfsd-clients" out of the new "nfs-utils". This was done because since the name changes autorpm would not recognize "nfs-utils" to be a "upgrade" of "knfsd and knfsd-clients". It would think it is a new package and thus not upgrade it. So I took the new "nfs-utils" and split out the rpms as required to make upgradable versions of "knfsd" and "knfsd-clients". Note that kernel >=2.2.14 is required for these rpms just as it is required for "nfs-utils". This should not be a problem as we started with 2.2.14. These rpms are being upgraded because of a security problem with rpm.statd. rpc.statd is started by the "nfslockd" script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ . Workgroups PAT Added both KDE and GNOME to the default install. AFS afs-fermi-3.5-6.i386.rpm There are two signifigant changes in this release. First is that the daily hardware clock sync script is fixed. The second is a little more important. This rpm release has a perl script called update_afs_cellservdb.pl This script keeps your afs server database up to date automatically. This is particualarly important if you use CERN's afs servers, because they recently changed their IP addresses. Troy's afs rpm page, detailing the different changes are at http://home.fnal.gov/~dawson/afs/afsrpms.html afs-ssh SSH enabled for afs is now installed by placing a copy in the DONOTEXPORT/workgroups//RPMS directory of each workgroup installing afs. TODO/IN Progress/not done yet Xntp Make changes as requested from Chris Green. Testing in progress. Since this changes the /etc/ntp.conf file I want to do quite a bit of testing before release. The issue is not with the change itself but with the modification of existing /etc/ntp.conf files to make sure it does not "break" anything. CDF autorpm.conf changes. This gives the ability to have a "workgroup" section in the autorpm.conf file. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8-25-2000 --Connie /RedHat/RPMS/ /updates/RedHat/RPMS/ netscape-common-4.75-0.6.2.i386.rpm netscape-communicator-4.75-0.6.2.i386.rpm netscape-navigator-4.75-0.6.2.i386.rpm perl-5.00503-12.i386.rpm usermode-1.28-2.i386.rpm /RedHat/RPMS Deleted tetex-doc-1.0.6-7.i386.rpm because it is almost 16MB and I need the cdrom space.
