> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> Summary:
> Updated xinetd package available for Red Hat Linux 7 and 7.1
> 
> Description:
> Xinetd runs with umask 0 - this means that applications using the xinetd
> umask and not setting the permissions themselves (like swat from the samba
> package), will create world writable files. This update sets the default
> umask to 022. Also, the web interface for linuxconf did not work in Red Hat
> Linux 7.1. Other minor issues have also been addressed.
