The remote Mandrake Linux host is missing one or more security updates. By default bind is launched as user and group root. This setting can give the possibility to easily exploit vulnerabities in bind. Thanks to Nicolas MONNET <nico at MONNET.TO> for his contribution. Update the affected bind, bind-devel and / or bind-utils packages
