For those of you who are really concerned about security, there
is another hole in the systems related to sending escape and
control characters to someones terminal.  Since I haven't seen
anything about it in this discussion, I won't mention it by name
but any interested system administrators can send me a mail
message and I will send back a description of the hole, how it
works, and the fix.  (please send the mail as root so that I
know you are legit.)
