Fedora Core 3 FEDORA-2005-177 Moderate Radvd 0.7.3 Router Update

fedora
Calendar Grey February 25, 2005
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Transition to radvd version 0.7.3 to enhance IPv6 router advertisement functionalities on Fedora Core 3.
Upgrade to new upstream version 0.7.3 .

Summary

radvd is the router advertisement daemon for IPv6. It listens to router

solicitations and sends router advertisements as described in "Neighbor

Discovery for IP Version 6 (IPv6)" (RFC 2461). With these advertisements

hosts can automatically configure their addresses and some other

parameters. They also can choose a default router based on these

advertisements.

Install radvd if you are setting up IPv6 network and/or Mobile IPv6

services.

- 0.7.1 (bugfix release, #61023), fixes:

- Check that forwarding is enabled when starting radvd

(helps avoid odd problems)

- Check configuration file permissions (note: in setuid operation, must not

be writable by the user.group)

- Cleanups and enhancements for radvdump

- Ensure NULL-termination with strncpy even with overlong strings

(non-criticals, but better safe than sorry)

- Require: initscripts (should really be with a version providing IPv6)

- clean up the init script, make condrestart work properly

- Use a static /etc/rc.d/init.d; init.d/radvd required it anyway.

* Sun Apr 1 2001 Pekka Savola

- add patch to chroot (doesn't work well yet, as /proc is used directly)

- clean up droproot patch, drop the rights earlier; require user-writable

pidfile directory

- set up the pidfile directory at compile time.

* Sat Mar 31 2001 Pekka Savola

- add select/kill signals patch from Nathan Lutchansky .

- add address syntax checked fix from Marko Myllynen .

default one.

* Sun Mar 18 2001 Pekka Savola

the like, really).

- applied patch supplied by Pekka Savola in #30508

- made changes to initscript as per Pekka's suggestions

* Thu Feb 15 2001 Tim Powers

- needed -D_GNU_SOURCE to build properly

* Tue Feb 6 2001 Tim Powers

- use %configure and %makeinstall, just glob the manpages, cleans

things up

- fixed initscript so that it can be internationalized in the future

* Fri Feb 2 2001 Pekka Savola

- Create a single package(source) for glibc21 and glibc22 (automatic

Requires can handle this just fine).

- use %{_mandir} and friends

- add more flesh to %doc

- streamline %config file %attrs

- streamline init.d file a bit:

* add a default chkconfig: (default to disable for security etc. reasons;

also, the default config isn't generic enough..)

* add reload/condrestart

* minor tweaks

* missing: localization support (initscripts-5.60)

- use %initdir macro

* Thu Feb 1 2001 Lars Fenneberg
