URGENT: Bug fixes in the RIPE database distribution

  • To:
  • From: RIPE Database software maintainer < >
  • Date: Wed, 31 May 1995 18:48:57 +0200

Dear all,

Recently Tony Bates found an authorisation problem in 'updatecheck.pl'. 
Today my fix is ready. Please apply this fix to your software!

Furthermore, I included the recent fixes made by Tony for :

net2net.pl
misc.pl

in the distribution and a small one from Curtis Villamizar for :

dbupdate.pl

I plan to add also some other fixes from Curtis in the next release.

Kind regards,

David Kessens
RIPE NCC Database software maintainer

======================================================================

How to apply the fix(es) :

Fix src/filename.pl with 'patch' or just put in the corresponding
file(s) of the new distribution (ftp:/ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/software,
file with latest version number). Always make a backup copy of the old
file(s) to be able to restore the original software in case you might
experience problems. After the fix(es) are applied, do a 'make install'
from the database root directory to install the patched file(s).

The following files have been changed from the previous release:

updatecheck.pl
dbupdate.pl
net2net.pl
misc.pl
