Appendix A. Package Manifest
This appendix is a list of all package changes since the release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4
A.1. Added Packages
ctdb-1.0.82-1.el5
• Group: System Environment/Daemons
• Summary: A Clustered Database based on Samba's Trivial Database (TDB)
• Description: CTDB is a cluster implementation of the TDB database used by Samba and other
projects to store temporary data. If an application is already using TDB for temporary data it is
very easy to convert that application to be cluster aware and use CTDB instead.
freeradius2-2.1.7-7.el5
• Group: System Environment/Daemons
• Summary: High-performance and highly configurable free RADIUS server
• Description: The FreeRADIUS Server Project is a high performance and highly configurable
GPL'd free RADIUS server. The server is similar in some respects to Livingston's 2.0 server.
While FreeRADIUS started as a variant of the Cistron RADIUS server, they don't share a lot
in common any more. It now has many more features than Cistron or Livingston, and is much
more configurable. FreeRADIUS is an Internet authentication daemon, which implements the
RADIUS protocol, as defined in RFC 2865 (and others). It allows Network Access Servers (NAS
boxes) to perform authentication for dial-up users. There are also RADIUS clients available
for Web servers, firewalls, Unix logins, and more. Using RADIUS allows authentication and
authorization for a network to be centralized, and minimizes the amount of re-configuration
which has to be done when adding or deleting new users.
gpxe-0.9.7-8.el5
• Group: System Environment/Base
• Summary: A network boot loader

proprietary PXE ROMs, with many extra features such as DNS, HTTP, iSCSI, etc.
