RHBA-2008:0203 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated redhat-ds-base packages that fix a bug are now available.

Description

The redhat-ds-base packages contain a replication plug-in, that allows
replication for user-selected attributes between Red Hat Directory Server
master instances.

The replication feature of Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 did not allow
fractional replication agreements between two master instances; however,
some Red Hat Directory Server plug-ins require a fractional replication
agreement between masters to function correctly. This fractional
replication limitation prevented those plug-ins from working as expected.
In these updated packages, fractional replication works correctly between
master instances.

Users of redhat-ds-base are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which resolve this issue.
