Correct me if I am wrong, but ISC revised that date and posted that revision 
to this newsgroup.

Your vendor is wrong. The fix has been available for a while now.

If your distributor doesn't have it, call ISC (213) 453-8649 and order it
yourself. But don't blame ISc for your distributor's failings.

                 I have found that asking usually works better. Try that.

That is wrong. Your 'major' distributor is about as current as that 'german'
distributor above. I suggest you both change distributors since neither one
of them has proven to be on the ball here.

Give me a break. This comment is not needed. And, in the light of the accuracy
of your assumptions, you are looking right now a little foolish. Just calm down
and call ISC.

Interactive's response was acceptable on this issue. Why doesn't someone just
acknowledge that and be done with it.
