Hello, my name is Dan. I was going to install lcdproc via the ports system, but the version in the ports collection is outdated and contains buffer overflow and format string vulnerabilities. the current ports version is 0.4.3_2 the current updated/patched version is 0.4.5 I was able to compile and install the newer version, with mininal tweaking of the patch files included for the earlier version. Please let me know what the procedure is to getting this updated and whether i should submit the modified patch files or if there is a maintainer for this port. Thanks for the help/info Dan _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Declare Yourself - Register online to vote today! http://vote.yahoo.com
