+----[ Brett Glass ]--------------------------------------------- | Reliance on mailing lists such as Bugtraq does not do any more or less | to "replace the administrator's brain." Fact is, when a trusted authority | says that there's a hole to be closed, I want action. I'm perfectly content | to review what happened after the fact. So fix it. If you can't fix it, wait for it to be fixed. If you can't wait for it to be fixed either change to a different vendor implementation or shut down. While these choice might be inconvenient, they are all you have. If you want to whinge about lack of support/features, buy support or buy a commercial OS (which almost certainly guarantees slower response time, but, at least someone there will listen to you whinge.) God knows there's half a dozen things been on my todo list for years that have been interfered with by Real Life. And BTW C doesn't kill people, C Programmers kill people. -- Totally Holistic Enterprises Internet| P:+61 7 3870 0066 | Andrew The Internet (Aust) Pty Ltd | F:+61 7 3870 4477 | Milton ACN: 082 081 472 | M:+61 416 022 411 |72 Col .Sig PO Box 403 Booval QLD Australia 4304 |akm@theinternet.com.au|Specialist To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe security" in the body of the message
