Trustix Secure Linux Bugfix Advisory #2002-0038

Package name:      apache
Summary:           chkconfig fix
Date:              2002-03-01
Affected versions: TSL 1.5

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem description:
  The httpd init script in the apache-1.3.23-1tr contained a faulty chkconfig
  line which caused the apache web server to be started on bootup. We consider 
  this to be an unnessecary security risk, and users that do not need to run the
  apache web server should disable it. This can be done with the following
  procedure: Run '/sbin/chkconfig httpd off', which will cause the apache 
  webserver not to be started on bootup. Also one need to run 
  '/etc/init.d/httpd stop', to actually stop the web server.
  We apologize for the inconvenience.

  
Action:
  We recommend that all systems with this package installed are upgraded.
  Please note that if you do not need the functionality provided by this
