First, I have nothing to back my support of MVS ??. Which world or even universe have you been living in ??.
I digress ... I'm sure your security intellect is extremely high as would be your knowledge of logic and this industry. As you've implied, you've already spent god knows how many man hours reading up on trade press ... Come to think of it .. since your hero's claim of fame as being a 'hacker' had him physically entering places where he had no business, w/out going any further, that in itself states the level of security that was present does it not ?. By the way (most people won't know what 'koyot' reflects but .. you do), do you realize that you are breaching your own claims for security by emailing ?. I left the rest of it out to respect 'your' privacy not 'your' security.

You keep making assertions with no data to back them ("MVS...has NEVER been hacked or destroyed by an ex employee !!", now this). Then you say you have no idea who Kevin Mitnick is. And you seem to think that lack of evidence is proof of something ("please tell me that you KNOW for a fact that if a financial company was hacked ... 'nobody' would know ??"). Do you realize that you're proving that you know very little about logic, computer security, or the computer industry? In case it's escaped you: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=%22kevin+mitnick%22 1.3M hits. Heavily covered by popular and trade press. Hardly obscure. -- zMan -- "I've got a mainframe and I'm not afraid to use it" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ----- No virus found in this message.
