Hi, I'll keep this brief. I basically have three questions about bind8 in stable: 1) The version in stable is still 8.1.2 - is there any reason to believe that the current well-known vulnerabilities in bind are not present for some reason in our bind 8.1.2? 2) Why hasn't FreeBSD made a statement is response to Cert Advisory CA-99-14? 3) How soon will the bind version be updated in stable? I'd prefer to stick with source instead of ports for ease of maintenance accross multiple machines. If building bind from ports is (and will continue to be) the best way of maintaining bind, so be it - I will make the change across all machines - I'd just rather not do it if it is not necessary.
