NCSA version 1.4 was released last week and might be a good idea to
install if you are running NCSA 1.3 or below.   NCSA 1.3 had several
vulnerability bugs that allow intruders to gain remote access. 
Since some firewalls allowed http through to a web server, it would be
a very good idea to insure you aren't vulnerable.

It is available at ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu.

Some recommendations when setting up a httpd server is make sure it is
running as nobody in the configuration files and if possible, run it
in a chroot environment.

Cheers,
Christopher
