 And that's 2 years less for LTS ... especially in bigger Setup's
 LTS-Support is mandatory so there (because there is no Debian LTS's)
 Debian cannot be used due to the lack of Support. Instead - Redhat
 or Ubuntu or any other distribution with LTS-Support is used there.

3 years of direct support of stable and so 1-2 years of oldstable
support mean a amount of 4-5 years, please define again what you mean
for LTS...

 Hi all,
 
 a Debian LTS-Version would be so welcome and is definitly
 something that's missing for Debian.
 

in 18 years Debian released 6 stable, an avarage of 3 years between a
stable and the next one, i think is already longer than others call
LTS a distro. 3 years between stables is already (imho, maybe) too
much, is already an overload of work for maintainers to backport
patches and other on software often classified old if not obsolete
too.

The major benefit of opensource software is the darwin effect, good
software evolve quickly, bad software die, force a maintainer to work
on a software for 2 years more than usual may mean force a unusefull
work, *imho* 3 years are already too much for a lot of enviroments
(like development)

 Try putting in the correct username and password;  that should solve

 More seriously:  this isn't a bug report, or a problem, it is a
 statement of fact.  We can't help you unless you tell us more about your
 problem.
 What are you trying to do, what is reporting the error, and how did you
 configure security on the machine?

Do you have re-used old lan ip? If yes, delete entry about remote host from
.sshd/know-host and retry.

 I would consider it a security issue because mail now could be delivered
 to the wrong server.

http://www.icann.org/announcements/advisory-19sep03.htm

Probabli this situation change in few time


Without patch bind9 (big work, packetize, upload to server, mirroring to other surce, 
updateupgrade=big time) imho is better filter mail blocking verisign cloaked IP 
(every mta support it, You can do it in few minutes)

 In short, no.  Occasionally, though, the security team will quickly move
 a fix in for testing if it's something particularly horrendous, and they
 have the resources to do it.  That's why the repository is there, but I
 wouldn't count on it for security.

If someone has testing version on his machine should link stable or
unstable for security update?
