Description Jeff Layton 2010-05-27 14:42:49 UTC 
The security negotiation patches (12f90a61dd7e0d8d3f5469d0d75240fb700a0ee5 in the rhel5 git tree), set the rq_flavor incorrectly for AUTH_UNIX and AUTH_NULL. svcauth_null_accept sets it to AUTH_UNIX and svcauth_unix_accept sets it to AUTH_NULL. Upstream has that reversed.

I *think* this is not a big deal. The code seems to basically treat those two equivalently, but it's probably something we should be aware of and might consider fixing.

Actually...this is a duplicate. We've already fixed this for 5.6.
