I am using the word "current version" to refer to the most recent version released by the author of the software (me), not the most recent version in the FreeBSD ports collection. It's not helpful to tell me there are bugs in my code when you're not running the current version of my code. > Which version has the memory leaks fixed then? > I was just going to installs dhcpd 3 for dynamic dns updates, but now I'm > not so sure. Does dhcp server leaks memory as well? 3.0b2pl4. However, 3.0b2pl4 is a fairly raw beta, and there are a couple of known problems with it. If you need to be running something in production, I'd suggest you wait a bit. OTOH, free software improves when people try it and report bugs, so you've got a bit of a Catch-22 going there. :'} _MelloN_ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
