no. it was a worm exploiting a vulnerability in ms sql server -- *and* apps such as mailservers which include a significant portion of sql server. an overview is on linuxandmain.com (amazingly, drudge linked to it under the overline "microsoft hole"), and a technical description, now pretty much complete, is here: http://www.techie.hopto.org/sqlworm.html -- dep http://www.linuxandmain.com -- outside the box, barely within the envelope, and no animated paperclip anywhere. _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
