initscripts-8.45.42-1.0.1.AXS3

The initscripts package contains the basic system scripts used to boot your Asianux system, change runlevels, and shut the system down cleanly. Initscripts also contains the scripts that activate and deactivate most network interfaces.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2008-1198
The default IPSec ifup script in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 through 5 configures racoon to use aggressive IKE mode instead of main IKE mode, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct brute force attacks by sniffing an unencrypted preshared key (PSK) hash.
Fixed bugs:
• Previously, the DHCPv6 client was not terminated when the network service was stopped. This has been fixed.
• On some systems, the rm command failed and reported the error message rm: cannot remove directory `/var/run/dovecot/login/': Is a directory during system boot. This has been fixed.
• Previously, the netconsole script failed to discover and resolve the MAC address of the router specified in the /etc/sysconfig/netconsole file. The script has been modified to fix this.
• Previously, sysfs failed to correctly remove the arp_ip_target; consequently, the error ifdown-eth: line 64: echo: write error: Invalid argument was reported when attempting to shut down a bonding device. This has been fixed.
