    Hi

    Trustix today released security updates for the following packages:

    bind:
    Trustix specific: no
    Distribution versions: All
    A remote hole in bind allows for the environment of the server process
    to be leaked to an attacker.

    openldap:
    Trustix specific: yes
    Distribution versions: 1.2 from jan. 19. 2000
    A silly bug in the rpm spec file for openldap makes the server run by
    default, which violates Trustix' standard of no running services by
    default. Note that there are no known remote security holes in openldap
    as shipped by Trustix.

    People who have this version of openldap installed on their systems
    without intentions of using it should run this set of commands:
    # chkconfig ldap off
    # service ldap stop

    MD5sums:
    1.2:
