OpenSSH 2.3.0p1: Problem with the init script in the RPM

[Sergey Vlasov]

There is a problem in the contrib/redhat/sshd.init script: it starts
sshd without specifying the full path (/usr/bin/sshd for the RPM
installation). The daemon starts up and works, but dies when it receives
a SIGHUP, because it is unable to re-exec itself without the full path.
