1. Topic:
The inetd server as shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.2 fails to close sockets
for internal services properly.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386, sparc
3. Problem description:
The inetd server as shipped with Red Hat Linux 6.2 fails to close sockets
for internal service properly. This could make services stop working when
the system had leaked sufficient resources.
Note that all of these services are turned off in the default configuration.
4. Solution:
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh <filenames>
where <filenames> is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directly *only* contains the
desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):
16729 - inetd does not close connection when daytime service is called
15908 - Misspelled variable in inetd start script

You can verify each package with the following command:

tampered with, examine only the md5sum with the following command:
rpm --checksig --nogpg <filename>
