I was reading a news article on the major news websites today about a "major" flaw in many different version of sendmail. Does anyone know how this effects GW,and is the GWIA at risk? Does the GWIA even use sendmail?? I couldn't find any reference to this on the novell website so I don't know If I need to worry about patching.

Thanks

Chris

 
Hi,

SendMail is the daemon that powers most SMTP services on Unix systems. GWIA does not use SendMail but its own proprietary SMTP engine. As such it is not vulnerable to the problem you noted.
