rsh bug fix update

Updated rsh packages that resolve an issue are now available.

The rsh-server package contains programs which allow users to run commands
on remote machines, log in to other machines, copy files between machines
(rsh, rlogin and rcp), and provides an alternate method of executing remote
commands (rexec). All of these programs are run by xinetd and can be
configured through the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) system, and
through configuration files in the /etc/xinetd.d/ directory.

These updated rsh packages provide fix for the following bug:

* when copying data to a full NFS directory, rcp failed silently and did
not report an error, which led to silent data loss. With this update, rcp
does report an error under this condition. (BZ#509363)

All users of rsh are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.

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

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
