    > CR.80603: * The problem of the Annex locking up when someone assumed the
    > identity of the Annex's loopback address (127.0.0.1) is

    > address is the same as source address, or if it is the
    > loopback address. This fix also includes protection
    > against LAND Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. [load image fix]
    
    I suggest anyone running Xylogics (Bay (Nortel!)) Terminal Servers contact
    their local Technical Services group for information on these patches.
