Almost every Cobalt RaQ at my local ISP has been hacked via an exploitation of Bind.
Cobalt has
released updates for Bind which may or may not be stable for all systems. When I
updated a RaQ4r
with the bind update my DNS, Telnet, FTP, POP,& IMAP all went down, and had a variety
of problems I
had to manually fix.
For more info on Bind,

I also recommend anyone not using SSH to install it immediately as this was the only
way I could
access my server, not to mention the security it provides, in this unsecured world.

Good luck, and remember its always better to be prepared and do the necessary
maintenance or suffer
the consequences.
