Re: Off Topic: Any reported issues with MS08-067 functionality?

["Larry Seltzer" <larry () larryseltzer com>]

I'm on Wifi and it didn't mess with me. The bug has to do with resolving
canonical names in shares (see
http://blogs.msdn.com/sdl/archive/2008/10/22/ms08-067.aspx), so I can't
see why it would have the effect you describe, but everyone knows this
shit's too complicated.

Was just wondering if anyone else has experienced WiFi (?) connectivity
problems after installed MS08-067 today...

I have two valid instances (myself :-) and a colleague) where after
rebooting, we cannot successfully retrieve the proper DHCP information
after connecting to an access-point. We both did exactly the same thing
(independently, by the way) -- reverted to an earlier (today) restore
point, rebooted and
the problem went away. I haven't tried to reinstall it since then, since
I
am traveling at the moment...

Just curious...
