RE: [cobalt-users] BIND vulnerability

"locate bind | less" on my Qube brings up 
/home/packages/bind-4.9.5p1-3.mips.rpm
for example.

NB that the process is called "named" : try 
"ps aux | grep named".
then "which named" to see which one you're running. 

Then "strings /usr/sbin/named | grep 4.9" which 
rather looks like it's actually 4.9.7.

Wait for Cobalt to release a patch, wait for them 
to withdraw it, wait for them to re-release it 
once they've fixed the bugs?

But seriously, I'd say that us MIPSen are at less  
risk of compromise than the Intel users.
