1. Topic:

Updated portsentry package is available

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Powertools 7.0 - i386

3. Problem description:

Enhancements were made to the portsentry initscript to better handle
dynamic IP addresses for users of ADSL, cable modems, etc., so that the
current IP is automatically added to the portsentry.ignore file at each
restart without duplication.

4. Solution:

For each RPM for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filename]

where filename is the name of the RPM.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

N/A

6. RPMs required:

Red Hat Powertools 7.0:

i386:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/powertools/7.0/i386/portsentry-1.0-9.i386.rpm

sources:
ftp://updates.redhat.com/powertools/7.0/SRPMS/portsentry-1.0-9.src.rpm

7. Verification:
