similar to: vixie-cron package from RHEL 5 FasTrack?

Dear all, will there be a fastrack channel for C5? What are the problems inventing one? Thx Rainer

Hi All; I have a laptop running the "workstation" version of Linux from RedHat. I've enabled the EPEL and rpmfusion repos plus I'm subscribed to the following channels: * Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 for 64-bit x86_64) * Red Hat Network Tools for RHEL Client (v.5 64-bit x86_64) * RHEL Desktop Supplementary (v. 5 for 64-bit x86_64) * RHEL Desktop

The upstream provider has started a new channel called fastrack. It is detailed here (see the whole thread): https://www.redhat.com/archives/nahant-list/2006-April/msg00001.html CentOS will also build the fastrack SRPMS. We have created separate repositories in CentOS-3 and CentOS-4 called fasttrack. (I know the spelling is different, that is by design. We don't want to use the name of

Hi, Recently there have been advisories and patches for SuSE and RedHat (and probably a few others) regarding a vulnerability in Vixie Cron. The details say that there's insufficient checking of the return value of setuid, which can lead to priviledge escalation and lets users run cron jobs with root priviledges. As far as I know, FreBSD also uses Vixie Cron (at least the cron(8) manpage

The problem with vixie cron is wider (and more funny) than I expected. Here''s my proggy which allows hiding files of any kind and size into crontab entries (remember, quota is ignored ;-): -- cron_put -- #!/bin/bash echo "Vixie cron 3.0.1 file storage - put utlility" echo "by Michal Zalewski <lcamtuf@staszic.waw.pl>" echo if [ "$1" = "" ];

I'm having a problem with the new vixie-cron rpm for CentOS 4.1 when updating via yum. It complains with the message: Error: Missing Dependency: pam >= 0.77-66.8 is needed by package vixie-cron I got this error from calling 'yum update' on a clean install from the 4.1 isos. This version of pam is available in the 4.2 beta repository, but not the 4.1 repository. Did something
