1. Topic:
The rp3 package, containing the rp3 and rp3-config programs, has
been found to have a few bugs regarding multiple modem configuration
and pre-existing PPP configurations.
2. Problem description:
When users attempted to add a new modem in the PPP Configuration Tool
(the rp3-config program), rp3-config died of a segmentation violation.
Also, already-existing PPP configurations could confuse rp3-config; it
would try to edit them as if it had set them up in the first place,
causing those configurations to quit working.
3. Bug IDs fixed (see bugzilla for more information):
4. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 6.1, Intel
5. Obsoleted by:
None
6. Conflicts with:
None
7. RPMs required:
Intel:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.1/en/os/i386/
rp3-1.0.1-1.i386.rpm
Source:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.1/en/os/SRPMS
rp3-1.0.1-1.src.rpm
8. Solution:
For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Uvh filename
where filename is the name of the RPM.
You will also want to get the initscripts errata from the security updates section of the errata.
9. Verification:
MD5 sum Package Name

These packages are GPG signed by Red Hat, Inc. for security. Our key
is available at:

You can verify each package with the following command:
rpm --checksig filename
If you only wish to verify that each package has not been corrupted or
tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
rpm --checksig --nogpg filename
Note that you need RPM >= 3.0 to check GnuPG keys.
