なるほど、そういう設定になっていたのですね。
さらに質問なのですが、 gopherd.confの中での利用制限はマシン名で制限する以
外にsubnetとか、domain名とかでアクセスの制限を書くことはできないのでしょう
か？
ご存知でしたら教えて下さい。

はい、そうです。
話をごっちゃにしてしまって、申し訳ありませんでした。

CA-93:11 CERT Advisory
August 9, 1993
UMN UNIX gopher and gopher+ Vulnerabilities
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CERT Coordination Center has received information concerning
vulnerabilities in versions of the UMN UNIX gopher and gopher+ server and
client available before August 6, 1993. Vulnerable versions were available on
boombox.micro.umn.edu:/pub/gopher/Unix/gopher1.12s.tar.Z,
boombox.micro.umn.edu:/pub/gopher/Unix/gopher2.03.tar.Z, and many other
anonymous FTP sites mirroring these software versions.
We strongly recommend that any site using versions of UMN UNIX gopher
and gopher+ dated prior to August 6, 1993 (including version 1.12, 1.12s,
2.0+, 2.03, and all earlier versions) immediately take corrective action.
If you have further questions regarding UMN UNIX gopher or gopher+ software,
send e-mail to: gopher@boombox.micro.umn.edu
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I. Description
Several vulnerabilities have been identified in UMN UNIX gopher and
gopher+ when configured as a server or public access client.
Intruders are known to have exploited these vulnerabilities to obtain
password files. Other actions may also have been taken by intruders
exploiting these vulnerabilities. CERT has already contacted those
sites currently known to have been victims of these activities. However,
sites may want to check for weak passwords, or consider changing
passwords, after installing the new gopher software.
II. Impact
Anyone (remote or local) can potentially gain unrestricted access
to the account running the public access client, thereby permitting
them to read any files accessible to this account (possibly including
/etc/passwd or other sensitive files).
In certain configurations, anyone (remote or local) can potentially
gain access to any account, including root, on a host configured as a
server running gopherd.
III. Solution
Affected sites should consider disabling gopherd service and public gopher
logins until they have installed the new software.
New versions of the UMN UNIX gopher and gopher+ software have been
released that provide bug fixes and correct these security problems.
Sites can obtain these new versions via anonymous FTP from
boombox.micro.umn.edu (134.84.132.2). The files are located in:
Filename Size Checksum
-------- ------ -----------
Gopher:
/pub/gopher/Unix/gopher1.12S.tar.Z 306872 46311 300
Gopher+:
/pub/gopher/Unix/gopher2.04.tar.Z 294872 29411 288
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The CERT Coordination Center wishes to thank Matt Schroth, Williams College,
and others for informing us of these vulnerabilities. We would also like to
thank Paul Lindner, University of Minnesota, for his quick response to these
problems.
