Hello There was a Bugtraq announcement for a MySQL Server security flaw today. The case was a password checking routine that allowed every user on a host that was allowed to connect to a mysql server to guess the password of an existing(!) user with only 32 tries.
There was a small fix provided which I applied to my mysql-server package and uploaded it as mysql-server_3.22.30-4_i386.deb. bye, -christian- -- Christian Hammers WESTEND GmbH - Aachen und Dueren Tel 0241/701333-0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet & Security for Professionals Fax 0241/911879
