RHBA-2009:0452 - kdenetwork bug fix update


Synopsis

kdenetwork bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated kdenetwork packages that resolve an issue are now available.

Description

The kdenetwork packages provide a collection of networking applications for the K Desktop Environment (KDE).

These updated kdenetwork packages fix the following bug:

  • the krfb command is a VNC-compatible server for sharing KDE desktops. The desktop can be shared by running krfb from the command line. krfb would fail if a user accessed the shared desktop from a web browser using the address http://hostname:5800 (where hostname is a valid address or hostname). The updated kdenetwork packages no longer have this issue and shared desktops can be accessed normally.

All users of kdenetwork are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
