Details

An updated shadow-utils package that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 4.

The shadow-utils package includes programs for converting UNIX password files to
the shadow password format, as well as tools for managing user and group
accounts.

This updated shadow-utils package provides a fix for the following bug:

* previously, the faillog command without any parameters showed records for all
users. With this update, the log shows only records of the users who had a login
failure, as described in the manual page. (BZ#619419)

All users of shadow-utils are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.
