Hi, I heartily disagree with your post this time, maybe I missunderstood you, but, you don?t reinstall your machine once in a while to keep things on top, a simple cvsup once in a while to upgrade the source (if needed..) would be enough. - guido -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-security@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-security@FreeBSD.ORG] On Behalf Of ksemat@wawa.eahd.or.ug Sent: Miercoles, 14 de Noviembre de 2001 12:19 p.m. To: John Baldwin Cc: Stefan Probst; Rob Hurle; freebsd-security@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: RE: Adore worm I also add my voice to the hullabaloo. Reinstall the machine, use ssh and do a cvsup to the latest stable release of freebsd. Do this regularly in order to keep on top of things. Noah.
