Darn! You beat me again! (-: Anyway, I wanted to point out that hundreds of sites are broken into every day around the world, but very few are so scrupulously public about letting their customers know what happened, how it was cleaned up, and what's being done to keep it from happening again. Only a hardcore open source group would do it that way. Debian will, of course, benefit from massively parallel peer review on this incident. If they left anything open (unlikely, IMO), somebody will notice and call them on it. And every Linux geek in the world has just had a vivid reminder of the dangers of logging in through unsecured hosts. That will help Linux security too. -- Bob Miller K<bob> kbobsoft software consulting http://kbobsoft.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
