[Macpartners] Security Update 2004-09-07

[Albert Willis]

Security Update 2004-09-07 is now available. It fixes _a lot_ of 
things; so you should get it as soon as you're comfortable. Apple is 
making it available for:

Mac OS X 10.3.5
Mac OS X 10.3.4
Mac OS X 10.2.8

Mac OS X 10.3.5 Server
Mac OS X 10.3.4 Server
Mac OS X 10.2.8 Server

The standard warning:

Test the security update on a test machine first, make sure you have a 
current backup, use Disk Utility to fix any disk corruption you may 
have (especially if you haven't done this in a while) and run repair 
permissions after the install.


Here's the official verbiage from Apple:
