I don't recall the exact URL for it right now, but it reportedly takes care of a lot of 'problems' with the standard fingerd. It does have some oddities of its own, IMO, such as storing user plan files, etc. in a dedicated directory, etc. I ran this for awhile when I was using 2.2.7. When I went up to -current, I just kept the default fingerd. Anyone have a suggestion re: the best fingerd to run? -mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
