Lsof Binaries

I do not recommend that you use a pre-compiled lsof binary and I no

longer provide any.

It is important that you compile lsof for yourself from the distributed

sources to allow its Configure script to tailor the binary to your

system.

*************************************************************

* DON'T TRY TO USE AN LSOF BINARY, COMPILED FOR ONE UNIX OS *

* VERSION, ON ANOTHER. *

*************************************************************

On some UNIX dialects lsof versions may be even more restricted by

architecture types.

*************************************************************

* AVOID USING BINARIES FOR LSOF REVISIONS BELOW 4.63. THEY *

* ARE VULNERABLE TO THE STANDARD I/O DESCRIPTOR ATTACK. *

* (See 00FAQ for more information.) *
