It does? umm, maybe I didn't mean ORBS. Let me re-check.

Um, who'se Alan Brown? Pardon the ignorance. And yes, I *did*
see some fwd's from you, about his fundas on RAID.

zippy == SunOS 5.7 - *I* personally don't have access to any
box that runs SunOS , though I *did* have root on a friend's SunOS 5.6
box ... and thats why I mentioned zippy. Yes, freenet is good,
too... and also, another interesting thing .. there are a couple bugs
in hobbiton's mail system,... which you can exploit - I don't know
about r00t h4x0ring.. but there *is* some sort of an open relay
procedure.
And another exploit on freenet lets you run backgrounded
processes , ... I'm contemplating writing to root && postmaster at
both places, about this stuff sometime, once I am convinced that it is
really an exploit :> There's also a $10 reward for reporting r00t
exploits, on hobbiton (i think) .. so lemme see if I can get the $10
<g>
ironically, both places, use newuser to give away
accounts. Well, SDF Lonestar Public Access UNIX systems uses newuser,
too , and they have hardcore uptimes, and slick access services...but
to date, I know of no exploits on SDF :>

Use windows, no coredumps :> Actually, doesn't windows put the
core equivalent stuff into some log(?) files, somewhere?
