Synopsis
rdesktop bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated rdesktop package that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The rdesktop package provides an open source client for Windows NT Terminal
Server Edition, and Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 Terminal Services. It supports
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) in order to remotely present a user's desktop, and
does not require any server extensions.
This update fixes the following bug:
- When connecting to a Windows Server 2008 machine, receiving a redirect could
cause the rdesktop client to terminate unexpectedly with a segmentation fault.
This update applies a patch that fixes this error, and receiving a redirect from
Windows Server 2008 no longer causes rdesktop to crash. (BZ#656199)
Users of rdesktop are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which resolves
this issue.
Solution
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 the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
