Description From deschon@isi.edu 2009-11-12 12:15:20

When the RLS server respondes to a get_configuration "all" request, and a
parameter, e.g. "logtype" is NULL, the empty string ("") sent in the response
is interpreted by the client as the end of the response.

When the RLS test suite is run, the following error is reported:
    testGetConfiguration Failure Globus I/O error: Deserialization failure
(cause: value is null)

The solution is to initialize "logtype" to the default value "syslog", in
"rls/server/conf.c".
