Why not? BO2K runs on Windows NT and Win2000 boxes. (The new version of

BO isn't cracking - it's carelessness on the part of the crackee.

Sure. But the issue isn't how it happened. The end net effect is the same --
it makes it easy to do something that's coming from someone else's box.


Whether it gets logged or not really depends on what you log. I know
there are packages out there that do either log, or compare the two
and go mad if they don't match.

Again, true but probably not relevant -- such info certainly isn't in news
server logs.

[followup moved to .off-topic.geek, 'cause that seemed more appropriate :) ]

Moving this to .debate, for lack of lugnet.off-topic.comp.risks. (...) BO isn't cracking - it's carelessness on the part of the crackee. Anyone can distribute happy99.exe, but breaking root on an up-to-CERT unix box is something very few can do. (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
