Hello, Well actualy bind 8.2.3 (and bindutils as well) become available on 23:30 EET on ftp.suse.com (or it has got read permissions). So it seems took a bit longer that said Roman. But finaly it is available. So happy upgrading to all. Thanks for patch SuSE@ RD> Use the one for the 6.1 version of the SuSE distribution. That is, as soon RD> as it's there, of course.

The bind8 package on the ftp site is bind8-8.2.3-30 but I am already running bind8-8.2.3-58 which is a part of 7.0 FTP distribution.

That's a versioning problem. The old package was version 8.2.3, too, but not the final version. I've created this package manually and named it -30. Please install it using the options rpm -Uhv --force bind8-8.2.3-30.i386.rpm I see if I can change it in a more elegant fashion.

Am I missing something?

Nope. Thanks for pointing at it. Roman. -- - - | Roman Drahtmüller <draht@suse.de> // "Caution: Cape does | SuSE GmbH - Security Phone: // not enable user to fly." | Nürnberg, Germany +49-911-740530 // (Batman Costume warning label) | - -

As neither http://www.suse.com/us/support/security/index.html nor http://www.suse.de/de/support/security/ have been updated yet this year, I have started an announce section on my website. This is at http://www.susesecurity.com/announce/ and I will endeavor to always have it current to within 24 hours. It seems that http://www.suse.com/en/support/download/updates/70_i386.html is being kept reasonably current (it hasn't had updates for 13 days) but it does not have links to the relevant security announcements :-( Hope this helps someone --- Nix - nix@susesecurity.com http://www.susesecurity.com

There is also the Linux security list:

yes, yes... Kurt, your portal is well-known by now.

And the weekly digest:

Hey SuSE, why not just dump the files into a dir automatically and have an hourly cronjob check for new files and build HTML?

Not so easy. There's more behind it, there's not just a braindead webserver firing out these dumb webpages. Some more things build on these webpages that make it fragile to automate. With a bit of experience you don't even want to login any more for kernel upgrades or to check the temperature. Believe me: I would have been the first to make this thing automatic if at all possible. But I'll check that again next month.

P.S. who plans to be at linuxtag in stuttgart?

Hardware/temperature problem. All should be there now. Except for sparc...

Thanks for patch SuSE@
