    LSF users,
    
    We now have a patch that addresses the issues raised by the security posting
    of 5 December 2001.  It is available to our customers from ftp.platform.com or 
    by contacting Technical Support (supportat_private).
    
    The patch is currently available for LSF 4.2 on all major platforms. Patches for
    other platforms and versions of LSF will be made available as required.
    
    We would also like to point out again that many of the security issues raised can be
    addressed in all versions of LSF with configuration changes.  We invite you to contact
    Platform Technical Support to discuss your configurations and any security concerns
    that you may have.
    
    There is also an ongoing development effort to review the security issues. We 
    will continue to keep you posted about our status and any actions that are taken.
    We continue to work directly with the original reporter. 
    
    As always, your comments and feedback are welcome.
    
    take care,
    
    Greg
