CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT


PACKAGE : openldap
SUMMARY : logrotate script kills klogd
DATE    : 2000-07-26
AFFECTED CONECTIVA VERSIONS : 4.1, 4.2 and 5.0

DESCRIPTION
Our previous update introduced a logrotate script for the ldap
logs. This script incorrectly signals the klogd daemon and kills
it. This new update also upgrades the openldap package to version
1.2.11 which fixes some bugs in the 1.2.10 release.

SOLUTION
Users should upgrade to the new packages or at least remove the
reference to klogd in /etc/logrotate.d/openldap. After upgrading,
users should restart the slapd daemon so that the new version will
be used. As root, issue the following command:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/ldap restart

Users who did not upgrade but only fixed the logrotate script do
not need to restart the server.
