We are looking for information on ways this has been done (not a "how to" description, but just a simple summary such as the Telegard bug that contained the zipfile bug), on BBS software that have been particularly prone to destructive invasion, or for other information that we can use to put together an article on invasions that allow penetration into they system itself. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ COMPUSERVE CuDS MOVED: The CUD issues on CompuServe have been shuffled around a bit. Recent issues can be found in DL0 of the IBMBBS SIG and in DL1 of LAWSIG. Back issues can be found in DL4 of the IBMBBS SIG. LAWSIG will one day have all the back issues as well, when I or some other brave soul takes the time to upload them. Cooperation between forums, to the extent of copying the files from IBMBBS to LAWSIG, is apparently not possible. +++++++++++++++++++ LOSING YOUR ACCOUNT? Be sure to let us know if you do so we can unsub you from the mailing list. ++++++++++++++++++++ NEWSPAPER ARTICLES WANTED: Readers have been quite good about sending along news articles from major outlets, but *please* also send along stories from the local papers that you might come across, or let us know the issue it's in and we'll try to dig up a copy. ******************************************************************** >> END OF THIS FILE << ***************************************************************************
