Are you sure you guys think that no passwd on uucp is the only way to keep someone out? ;-) Maybe you should have a tiger team attack your machine, that could teach you a bunch.. But all this useless drivel over uucp passwords and Joe is mildly stupid. There are ways too many to count on how to get access.. If I were not such a nice guy about it, I could be in jail by now!! I really don't think that mild arguements over where, will not lead to how discussions.. People are curious about things.. (like cats) It will come up.. and it should not be posted.. it needs to be handled in E-mail!! --nethack -- todd@jupiter.nmt.edu / nmtsun!todd Dr. Nethack: Box 3693 c/s Socorro, Nm. 87801
