A short note on the recently reported virus (really worm).  The debug 
option in sendmail which allowed the worm to enter a system is not
turned on in ULTRIX with the exception of ULTRIX Field Test 3.0 (and
UWS Field Test 2.0).  So, ULTRIX systems are not affected (unless you
installed a different sendmail version).
