Details

Red Hat Directory Server 7.1 Service Pack 3, an updated redhat-ds package
containing a number of fixes, is now available.

Red Hat Directory Server is an LDAPv3-compliant server.

For the latest information, refer to the release notes at the
following URL:

This update addresses the following issues:

* 189264 - This bug was only triggered by an in-place upgrade, when a
database version was changed between the version being migrated from
and the version being migrated to. In this event, transaction logs may
not be removed. This problem has been fixed.

* 191240 - The initial Admin Server password could be used to log into the
Admin Server even after the password was updated. This problem has been
fixed.

* 192901 - When the given base DN had no children in a subtree search,
even if the filter did not match the base DN entry, the entry was
returned. This problem has been fixed.

* 197757 - After updating the admin user password, the attempt to log into
the Console with the previous password issued a wrong error message.
This problem has been fixed.

* 197831 - When the attempt to update the Admin Server password
through the Console failed, the error message was not helpful in
determining the cause of the failure. This problem has been fixed.

* 200146 - When updating the admin user password on the Console, if the new
password contained characters which were escaped over HTTP, the
escaped password was submitted. This problem has been fixed.

Users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which resolves these
issues.


Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to the system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for the particular architecture, run the following command:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs to be upgraded. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that it
is possible to use wildcards (*.rpm) if the current directory *only*
contains the desired RPMs.

This update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This starts an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on the system.
