Bug Fix Advisory - RHBA-2009:1509-1
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
inn bug fix update

Updated inn packages that resolve an issue are now available.

Description:
INN (InterNetNews) is a complete system for serving Usenet news and private
newsfeeds. INN includes innd, an NNTP (NetNews Transport Protocol) server,
and nnrpd, a newsreader that is spawned for each client. Both innd and
nnrpd vary slightly from the NNTP protocol, but not in ways that are easily
noticed.

These updated packages address the following issue:

* a PID file -- /var/run/news/innd.pid -- is created by the Internet News
NNTP server, innd, at startup. If this file was not present when an attempt
to stop innd was made, the service did not stop. With this update, the innd
init script adds logic to stop innd with the killproc command if a "service
innd stop" command is issued and innd.pid cann to be found. The updated
init script also returns a message, "Stopping INND service (PID not found,
the hard way)", in this case. (BZ#464916)

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