Fluids Help

I went to the dealer today and bought brake fluid and power steering fluid. What I'm confused about is they gave me automatic transmission fluid for power steering fluid. Is this correct? I didn't know you could use trans fluid for power steering too
Also when bleeding the brakes, do you have to do the rears too? Since the corolla has rear drums.

Many cars are happy using Dexron for power steering but SOME manufacturers specifically say power steering fluid only. Always read to make sure before putting in the wrong fluid.
