Comment 1 Summer Maynard 2004-01-09 16:28:11 EST

jbaron submitted patch at BZ_111342 that appears to fix this.

Comment 4 Neil Horman 2004-01-15 08:01:53 EST

The patch was submitted in BZ_111342 for AS2.1.  This is just a
placeholder to make sure the same patch makes it into an update for RHEL3.

Comment 5 Ernie Petrides 2004-01-30 14:44:47 EST

A fix for this was committed to RHEL3 U2 last night
in kernel version 2.4.21-9.2.EL.
