tripwire 1.2 is shipped with the RedHat 5.2 Powertools - no 1.3
version in sight.  If I recall, this version is several years old -
later versions of it went commercial.

I've experienced the segfault myself, in exactly the manner described
by "CyberPsychotic" <fygrave@tigerteam.net> describes.  Thanks for the
patch.

Very useful tool.  I'm glad RH is including it with its powertools
collection.  More "security" utilities such as this should be
included, including things like "cheops"...

[mod: I'm getting conflicting reports "yes it shipped version X" "no
it didn't, version X was shipped". Figure it out for yourself if you 
need to know. I'm no longer approving stuff in this yes/no debate. -- REW]

Cheers
Tony
