Subject: The last word on the Linux Slapper worm

I can say about this that your offsets are probably different than those 
in worm exploit code. So, you are not vulnerable to dumb worm static 
exploit way. But it doesn't mean that there is no guy that would install 
his redhat with configuration close to yours just to find correct offset 
and get inside of your system. Chance is pretty little, but there is still 
a chance.
