Insight
Update Information:
This update corrects the behaviour of pptpsetup when its --delete option is used, retaining the permissions of /etc/ppp/chap-secrets rather than creating a new file that is likely to be world-readable. If you have previously used the --delete option of pptpsetup, you should reset the permissions of /etc/ppp/chap- secrets to their default value of 0600 unless you have good reasons to use another value: # chmod 600 /etc/ppp/chap-secrets
ChangeLog:
* Wed Mar 25 2009 Paul Howarth 1.7.2-5
- Retain permissions on /etc/ppp/chap-secrets when using pptpsetup (#492090) - Use upstream versions of patches
- Re-enable parallel build
Makefile dependencies now fixed
- Use perl rather than sed to edit Makefile, for spec compatibility with ancient distro releases
