Comment 1 Ernie Petrides 2005-05-24 21:16:32 UTC
Hello, Jean.  I believe this problem (in the "initscripts" RPM) was
fixed in last week's release of RHEL3 U5.  Please upgrade to U5 and
confirm whether this resolves your bug report.  If it is resolved,
you may set this bug's status to CLOSED/ERRATA (or Bill Nottingham
will do it if you forget).

The associated U5 "initscripts" advisory is RHBA-2005:123.  (There
is an associated RHEL4 bug 155331, but no associated RHEL3 bug.)
