If you want to be a little less appetizing to the bear than the other guy
until Sun coughs up a sadmind patch (if you're one of the unlucky sites
that has a need for it), get thee hence to

        ftp://ftp.porcupine.org/pub/security/rpcbind_2.1.tar.gz

and replace the rpcbind on your solaris2 system with Weitse's tcpwrapped
version.

        It will NOT stop the buffer overflow in sadmind by any means,
but it will stop this particular exploit script from being used by those
who cannot fix the code to not ask portmapper for the sadmind port.

(of course, since it's 18:45 EST on a friday, I imagine someone will post
a version that does direct-to-sadmind-port poking well before monday a.m.)
