Re: Windows NT4 Bastion Host Whitepaper

["S. Jonah Pressman" <jonah () istar ca>]

Stefan:

Thank you for posting your interesting and very useful paper on bastion
host configuration.

In light of the serious threat described in CERT Advisory CA-99-07 IIS
Buffer Overflow (June 16, 1999), in combination with the fact that most
NT bastion hosts are running IIS4 these days, the readers of your next
iteration of the document may benefit from mention of the exploit and
the corrective action (as described in
http://www.microsoft.com/security/bulletins/ms99-019.asp ).

Best Regards,
Jonah
