i find it very suprising that there is not even a peep from debian developers about the massive security holes in proftpd and the minor ones in wu.ftpd ..virtually all the other distros announced. even if there is not a good fix people should be made aware not everyone watches bugtraq.
unless the version(s) of proftpd in debian are safe? i read a post that talked about flaws in the very design of it, making it secure would require almost an entire re-write of the whole package. i posted to debian-user a few weeks back askin for help with this issue but never saw a reply(if there was sorry i must've missed it) nate (just tryin to watch out for fellow debian users) ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Linux System Administrator http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]--
