30-Apr-91 11:06:00-PDT,1186;000000000000 Date: Tue, 30 Apr 91 11:06:00 PDT From: April Marine Subject: TACNEWS Update To: "*PS:ANNOUNCEMENTS.TXT.4"@NIC.DDN.MIL Message-ID: <12681675843.44.APRIL@NIC.DDN.MIL> The TACNEWS program underwent two changes that were not previously announced. 1. DDN Security Bulletins are now readable via TACNEWS as menu item #8. DDN Security Bulletins discuss general security issues, announce security information available, or warn about specific vulnerabilities. DDN Security Bulletin 9003 describes how to report security problems that occur on the DDN. 2. The information available via the TACNEWS program is now also available via the NIC/Query program on the NIC.DDN.MIL host. TACNEWS is now menu item #7 on the top menu of NIC/Query. Choosing this item will present you with the familiar TACNEWS menu selections. Having TACNEWS available within the NIC/Query program means that users who wish to use both programs do not need to connect to the NIC host twice. TACNEWS also remains available as a separate program for separate access for those users who find it more convenient to access it in the familiar manner. -------
