RHBA-2009:0452 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated kdenetwork packages that resolve an issue are now available.

Description

The kdenetwork packages provide a collection of networking applications for
the K Desktop Environment (KDE).

These updated kdenetwork packages fix the following bug:

• the krfb command is a VNC-compatible server for sharing KDE desktops. The

desktop can be shared by running krfb from the command line. krfb would
fail if a user accessed the shared desktop from a web browser using the
address http://hostname:5800 (where hostname is a valid address or
hostname). The updated kdenetwork packages no longer have this issue and
shared desktops can be accessed normally.

All users of kdenetwork are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which resolve this issue.
