In your case, maybe it was. I just wanted to point out that the articles you posted all related to how hackers tend to use Serv-U as a way to install "backdoor", isn't a security issue with Serv-U--it's just their tool of choice. Generally speaking, they've probably gotten into your server via other means and just installed the tool w/out your knowledge. I do know that there have been a couple of severe security bugs in Serv-U found, but in my experience they have been found, reported and squashed pretty quickly. However, I haven't used the last couple of versions of Serv-U as the old version always worked great for me... -Dan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:220589 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
