A security hole exists in sliplogin as shipped in the NetKit-B RPM
on all releases of Red Hat Linux.  The hole may allow users to gain
unauthorized root access.  The fix involves removing sliplogin from
the NetKit-B RPM, so you must install a new NetKit-B and sliplogin.
All users should upgrade immediately.

Intel:

rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat-2.1/i386/updates/RPMS/NetKit-B-0.06-7.
i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat-2.1/i386/updates/RPMS/sliplogin-2.0.2-
1.i386.rpm

Alpha:

rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat-2.1/axp-beta/updates/RPMS/NetKit-B-0.0

rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat-2.1/axp-beta/updates/RPMS/sliplogin-2.
