Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-680
2005-07-29
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : NetworkManager
Version : 0.4
Release : 20.FC4.1
Summary : Network link manager and user applications
Description :
NetworkManager attempts to keep an active network connection available at all times. It is intended only for the desktop use-case, and is not intended for usage on servers. The point of NetworkManager is to make networking configuration and setup as painless and automatic as possible. If using DHCP, NetworkManager is _intended_ to replace default routes, obtain IP addresses from a DHCP server, and change nameservers whenever it sees fit.



---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Network Manager passes logging messages straight to syslog as the format string. This causes it to crash when connecting to access points that contain format string characters.

This was reported initially by Ian Jackson:
