  I noticed 3.3Release, which I installed recently, is running Bind
8.2.1 which has known security vulnerabilities including a possible root
compromise exploit.  <http://ciac.llnl.gov/ciac/bulletins/k-007.shtml>;

  I did not see this mentioned in the errata page for 3.3 at 
<http://www.freebsd.org/releases/3.3R/errata.html>;

  The ISC recommends running Bind 8.2.2P5.  Is Bind 8.2.2P5
incorporated into the latest -stable build, so that I'll get it if I
start doing CTM or CVS updates?  Or is it preferable to grab the
sources direct from ISC?

           But no man is strong enough to have no interest.  
             Therefore the best king would be Pure Chance.  
              It is Pure Chance that rules the Universe; 
          therefore, and only therefore, life is good." - AC
