Your right..there is an exploit for named. There are people out there
that can send something to your name server and see which ones crash. I
know that it will just crash an HP box but sometimes with RH you can get
root. Try looking for the source of the newest version of named at
www.isc.org. I think that is the URL, if not just search the web for the
named exploit. Good luck!
