News reports and other published literature regularily
states the use of "well-known" security holes in UNIX
by hackers and system crackers. I've read about the
one in sendmail, but none others. Since they're so
"well-known", would someone be willing to identify them
to me (curiosity, you know), or tell me where there is
doc on them?

You can get some PostScript formatted papers describing the Robert Morris worm of 1988 from prep.ai.mit.edu, in the directory /pub/virus. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Howard C.
