To All:

The reason why this is a manual update is simple.  The %postun from the 
old RPM deletes the content found in /usr/local/frontpage.  That happens 
to be all of your settings.  If you do not follow these instructions line 
by line, you could mess up your Frontpage Settings.

I have tried this on my demo box, and it has worked.  Just paste in 1 line 
at a time and you should be good.

This update fixes this exploit; http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917627

You will do all of this as the user ROOT!

Step #1 - Back your Extensions Up!!!

cd /usr/local/frontpage
tar cfvpz /tmp/my-fpx-settings.tgz *.cnf

Step #2 - Download & install the update.  DO NOT change any line below!

cd /tmp
wget http://www.nuonce.net/bq/nuonce-fp-2002-2.0-1.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh --noscripts nuonce-fp-2002-2.0-1.i386.rpm
cd /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/
./set_default_perms.sh
/bin/chmod 755 /etc/httpd/logs
psea="ps ea"
ps=`$psea | tail -10`
echo $ps | sed -e 's/ //g' | cut -c10-137 > \
   /usr/local/frontpage/currentversion/apache-fp/suidkey
service httpd restart

Step #3 - Just make sure you did everything properly.

cd /usr/local/frontpage
ls -l *.cnf

You should see your old config files.  You can also check it via 
accessing your site via Frontpage.

This file will NEVER be moved into my Yum Repo.  I have been unsuccessful 
in automating the process of NOT running the uninstall script from the 
previous version.  This file will over write the previous uninstall 
script, and it should never be a problem again.

If you do not do step #1, and something breaks, do not yell at me!  You 
have been warned to make a backup.  If something bad does happen, it will 
be quite easy to recover because you have the back up of your 
configuration files!
