 Fixes
------
-
-Since SSLv2 can't be disabled via a configuration setting for all services
-running on a Kolab server, the OpenSSL package has to be updated.
+- -----
 
-Install OpenPKG package openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2:
+Note: The fix described here is for Kolab server 2.0.1.  If you still
+run an older version, please upgrade to 2.0.1 first.
 
-A new OpenSSL RPM is available from the Kolab download mirrors as
-security-updates/20051014/openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2.src.rpm
+Since SSLv2 can't be disabled via a configuration setting for all
+services running on a Kolab server, the OpenSSL package has to be
+updated and the dependent packages have to be rebuilt so that they use
+the new OpenSSL version.
 
-A binary RPM for Debian woody (ix86) is available as
-security-updates/20051014/openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2.ix86-debian3.0-kolab.rpm
+The updated OpenPKG package openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2 is available from the
+usual kolab mirrors under the directory security-updates/20051014/ .
+While the mirrors are catching up, you can also get the files via rsync:
+# rsync -tzvr rsync://rsync.kolab.org/kolab/server/security-updates/20051014 .
 
-The mirrors are listed on http://kolab.org/mirrors.html
+If you have installed the Kolab server from sources, download the
+directory security-updates/20051014/sources/
 
-While the mirrors are catching up, you can also get the package via rsync:
-# rsync -tzv rsync://rsync.kolab.org/kolab/server/security-updates/20051014/openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2.src.rpm .
+If you installed the ix86-debian3.0 binaries, download
+security-updates/20051014/ix86-debian3.0/
 
+Both directories contain the new OpenSSL package plus obmtool and
+obmtool.conf like in a kolab release.  In addition, the ix86-debian3.0
+directory contains updated binaries of the dependent packages.
 
-This package can be installed on your Kolab Server with
+In both cases, download all files in the appropriate directory, chdir
+into the downloaded directory and run
 
-# /kolab/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2.src.rpm
-# /kolab/bin/openpkg rpm \
-  -Uvh /kolab/RPM/PKG/openssl-0.9.7g-2.4.2.<ARCH>-<OS>-kolab.rpm
+  /kolab/bin/openpkg rc all stop
+  ./obmtool kolab
 
-FIXME: recompile dependent packages, restart servers
+This will install the new openssl package and rebuild/reinstall the
+dependent packages.  Afterwards start the server again, making sure to
+regenerate the config files as you would for a normal Kolab server
+update.
