Wrong list. Complain to NAI if you have problems with their products. Regards, Arjen

Yes, as with the XFree problem earlier this may appear to be the wrong list. Having said that, I'm fairly sure that some people appreciate the "heads up" element of such emails. One might now be cautious about installing the XFree security update, or about relying on NAI for virus scanning at the gateway. My opinion (slightly humble) is that this is a good list for alerts for security related problems, and especially for answers to these problems. To get the answers you may need discussion.... Mvrka, Oliver: if you resolve your problems, I'm sure I won't be the only person interested in the solution. Tom.
