Hello.
I was checking out one of our systems the other day
and I belive it has the old sendmail bug.
I looked in the sendmail.cf file for the OW*
but couldn't find it. Does this mean I have the older
version? Or how do I test to see if this version is safe?

Well I'm glad I did, we have sendmail-5.58 and one of the README files specifically states that this has the ethernet security holes. We probably didn't worry much about that at first because we aren't running ethernet, however we will be running ethernet within the next 4-6 weeks. Can anyone enlighten me about these security holes and possibly point me in the right direction for correcting this problem? Thanks... DAS -- David A.
