i agree with jordan, this advisory says ABSOLUTELY nothing. when you post such warnings with no proof it makes on think that the person who posts is more interested in fame. if indeed this is a real problem ask the people who compromised your machine to contact the developers of FreeBSD and nip the problem in the bud. "the sky is falling, the sky is falling" comes to mind.. --jacob Jacob Zehnder Network Engineer CNMNetwork http://www.cnmnetwork.com -----Original Message----- From: Jordan K.
