Thanks.  I've looked both these places, and they have very little
in the way of Operating System specifics.  In my talk tomorrow
I will be targeting managers who will be deciding whether or not
to send their technical people to the bind upgrade seminar.  They
will not, for the most part, know whether they are on 4.9.5 or
8.1.2 of bind.  They will, almost certainly, know if their machines
run FreeBSD, RedHat Linux, or True-64 Unix.

I need to know of known scripts for exploiting a particular
operating system version, such as Glorp Linux, Version 6.2.
Anyone that knows of even one such exploitation script, please
let me know.  I don't need the script, and I don't need to
know how to find the script.  I just need the OS/OS version number.
I want to light a fire under the managers sitting in the audience
so that they will know that their particular OS version has been
compromised somewhere else.  It will help them face the facts.
