[cobalt-users] RE: Where can we find ProFTP RPM's?

["GPS" <gps@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

+I have not been able to find them on the Cobalt.com site.  Could you point
+me in the right direction?

+Thanks.

+Installing JUST PKG patches will not protect you. You need to install the
+ProFTP RPM's.
+Probably more FTP exploits going on than BIND.
