Rob, I was wondering where we stand in terms of releasing the next rev of xinetd? Several distributions are lumbering towards their next release. The version of xinetd in cvs is far superior to 2.3.11 and considerably more stable. Look at the Changelog. There's a lot of fixes that I wished were available to common users. Let's look at the changelog. Starting with the entry devel and going down the list, I consider #5, #6, #8, #10, #13, #16, #17, & #19 to be serious security issues. I consider: #2, #12, & #23 to be easy DOS & core dumps. There's many memory leaks fixed and the cvs version includes the file name that caused a parsing error instead of just the line number. This alone should help new users debug service entries much quicker. I was wondering what, if anything, is holding up the next release? Do we have a release date in mind or bugs that need solving before 2.3.12 is released? Sincerely, Steve Grubb __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
