Firstly our sco ES contract does not prohibit us from talking about
problems in released software (it does on beta but tha't quite
normal).

Secondly the bug in question is not related to rexecd as ronald suggests.
I am not going to be drawn into describing the bug however I will say
again:

	If you are using SCO 3.2.[01] with TCP/IP and NFS you need
	to install the security fixes !
