While we're on the subject of the ftpd included with CSuite 1.0...

There was a security hole in wu-ftpd which would allow root access to
attackers, were it not for the stock CSuite ftpaccess file. But that
doesn't exactly leave me with a warm fuzzy feeling.

I patched this last year but for some stupid reason, I never made up a new
src-etc-ftpd tarball for future 1.0 sites. There's one up there now, and
if anyone's doing a CSuite 1.0 build in the near future, I'd suggest they
use it as a replacement for the src-etc-ftpd.tar.gz shipped with CSuite
1.0.

The new package is up at
	http://csuite.ns.ca/ftp/1.0-fixes/src-etc-ftpd.tar.gz

If anyone wants to patch /var/csuite/src/etc/ftpd/src/realpath.c by hand
and recompile, the patch is here:
	http://csuite.ns.ca/ftp/realpath.c.patch

The original announcement is archived here.
