Dear All,

We are experiencing some incidents with the Backup Exec exploit on Novell
Netware Servers and were interested if others were seeing this as well.
Please drop me a note if you are having the same experience.

I have heard several reports here on campus of Netware servers running
Backup Exec "crashing hard" when attackers throw the Windoze exploit code
at them. I suggest that folks with Backup Exec for Netware immediately
start screaming (en masse) at Veritas for a patch.
