  Er, no, there aren't any more bugs in the latest version of Unix.  We've
finally ironed them all out.  Everyone can go home now.  :-]

  That's a pretty vague question.  A better question might be:

"I'm considering deploying a Unix webserver, running
{Solaris/BSDI/Linux/whatever}, and would like to know if there are any
security exposures that I should be worried about after I install it." 

  Some good sources on security-related info:

COAST Big Hotlist http://www.cs.purdue.edu/homes/spaf/hotlists/csec-top.html
WWW Security FAQ http://www-genome.wi.mit.edu/WWW/faqs/www-security-faq.html
Yahoo http://www.yahoo.com/
COAST Firewalls Hotlist http://www.cs.purdue.edu/coast/firewalls/

  I'm sure others will have other preferences.  More specific info is
going to depend on your OS/version and what you're doing.
