Speaking of which, we've been more than a little alarmed by the new dsn
"security feature" which opens ports all over the place and exports
stuff with NFS and generally does horrible stuff, but you can't switch
it off if you want DNS (say SGI)!

There's already a patch out for it, which hasn't been noted here, AFAIK,
BTW.

Cheers,

Ben.
