RE: Verifying updates to source



Thanks Adrian  

The version for bind displays 'BIND 9.4.2-P1'

As for /usr/lib/libcrypto* the dates have changed to the date I put the fix
and completed the built.

And yes I am on netbsd 4.0.

Regards

Derrick

Hi,

You don't state what release you're on at the moment so I'm going to 
assume netbsd-4.  For 2008-009 the version of BIND was actually 
upgraded.  So if you run '/usr/sbin/named -v' it should report back that 
you're running 'BIND 9.4.2-P1'.  If it reports 'BIND 9.4.1-P1' then 
something is rotten.

2008-008 is a little more tricky as we didn't upgrade the OpenSSL 
version for that advisory, it was just a patch to the existing sources. 
   Once more only the libcrypto libraries were updated.  I'd check if 
the source files have been updated (specifically 
crypto/dist/openssl/crypto/bn/bn_mont.c as stated in the advisory) and 
the date and time stamps have changed on the /usr/lib/libcrypto* files.

adrian.
