Trustix Secure Linux Bugfix Advisory #2005-0058
Package names: bridge-utils, courier-imap, ebtables, gawk,
hotplug, kernel, net-snmp, sysreport, vim
Summary: Various bug fixes
Date: 2005-10-21
Affected versions: Trustix Secure Linux 2.2
Trustix Secure Linux 3.0
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package description:
bridge-utils
This package contains utilities for configuring the linux ethernet bridge.
The linux ethernet bridge can be used for connecting multiple ethernet
devices together. The connecting is fully transparent: hosts connected to
one ethernet device see hosts connected to the other ethernet devices
directly.
courier-imap
Courier-IMAP is an IMAP server for Maildir mailboxes. This package
contains the standalone version of the IMAP server that's included in the
Courier mail server package. This package is a standalone version for
use with other mail servers.
ebtables
ebtables is a user space tool, it is used to set up and maintain the
tables of Ethernet frame rules in the Linux kernel. These rules inspect
the Ethernet frames with they see. ebtables is analogous to the iptables
user space tool.
gawk
The gawk packages contains the GNU version of awk, a text processing
utility. Awk interprets a special-purpose programming language to do
quick and easy text pattern matching and reformatting jobs. Gawk should
be upwardly compatible with the Bell Labs research version of awk and
is almost completely compliant with the 1993 POSIX 1003.2 standard for
awk.
hotplug
The term "hotplugging" refers to the dynamic reconfiguration performed
after a device has been attached to a running system. This package
contains the application which is called by the kernel when a USB device
is added; hotplug then loads the required modules for that device.
kernel
The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of your
Trustix Secure Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic
functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation,
device input and output, etc.
net-snmp
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for network
management. The NET-SNMP project includes various SNMP tools: an
extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools for requesting or setting
information from SNMP agents, tools for generating and handling SNMP
traps, a version of the netstat command which uses SNMP, and a Tk/Perl
mib browser. This package contains the snmpd and snmptrapd daemons,
documentation, etc.
sysreport
Sysreport is a utility which gathers information about a system's
hardware and configuration. The information can then be used for
diagnostic purposes and debugging. Sysreport is commonly used to help
support technicians and developers by providing a "snapshot" of a
system's current layout.
vim
VIM (VIsual editor iMproved) is an updated and improved version of the vi
editor. Vi was the first real screen-based editor for UNIX, and is still
very popular. VIM improves on vi by adding new features: multiple windows,
multi-level undo, block highlighting and more.
