Hi, 1) Is there an Archive for for Bugtraq? Where is it located and How far does it go back? 2) I'm looking for an exploit script and the fix for the sendmail piping to a file problem. To the best of my recollection there was a problem with sendmail in that one could pipe to a file e.g. /.rhosts and the solution was to simply take one line out of the sendmail.cf. 3) What was the specific rdist hole? Other than enabling rdist seems insecure from the get go but was there something unique about rdist that could still be used against lets say an pro- perly configured Internet firewall system. Could someone explain to me how rdist works i.e. how exactly does it ac- complish its job? Thanks, Andrew Rodnite (612) 937-4667 rodnite () holonet net
