Topic

Updated system-config-users packages that fix three bugs are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The system-config-users packages provide a graphical utility for administrating
users and groups.

This update fixes the following bugs:

  • Prior to this update, expiration dates at or before January 1,

1970 were not correctly calculated. As a consequence, the system-config-users
utility stored expiration dates off by one day into /etc/shadow. This update
modifies the underlying code so that account expiration dates are calculated and
stored correctly. (BZ#736037)

  • Prior to this update, a string in the user interface was not correctly

localized into Japanese. This update modifies the string so that the text is now
correct. (BZ#801652)

  • Prior to this update, the system-config-users utility determined incorrectly

whether to set an account as inactive if an expired password was not reset
during a specified period. This update modifies the underlying code to check for
this condition by hard-coding the value which indicates this condition.
(BZ#841886)

All users of system-config-users are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which fix these bugs.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
