There's been a little discussion about a ypwhich hole under FreeBSD  2.1.0R.  In 
order to plug the hole as quickly and as easily as possible, for the moment, 
would replacing the 2.1.0 version of ypwhich with the one in current fix the 
problem or does the problem exist in a library or in the kernel?
