passwords and crypt?
Hi all, I'm not sure if this is common knowledge or not, but I have just noticed the effects of having the first two letters of your password the same as the first two in your login name... You can use any extension of your password!! e.g., on my Woody box I added a user called 'ron' and his password was 'roniosko'. He could login in with 'ronioskos', 'ronioskoasdfasd' and so forth! I tried a few more and had the same results. This is something to do with the random salt right? Can anyone else reproduce this?

Re: Listening Ports
Jeff, You want to check out ipchains. It is a packet filter which you can use to reject traffic based on protocol (tcp, udp, icmp), interface, source/destination address and port numbers. - Roger On Sun, 9 Sep 2001, Jeff Coppock wrote: How would I control which ports listen on specified interfaces?
