Yes. That's one reason it annoys me to see people claiming that disabling monlist fixes the problem: at most, it refuses to tolerate the (currently) most popular exploitation of the problem. It doesn't actually _fix_ anything. (Well, except to the extent that treating the symptom constitutes fixing, which admittedly can be a significant extent, especially to the poor sod on the wrong end of an amplified attack.) /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ pool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/pool
