From: avalon at coombs.anu.edu.au (Darren Reed) Subject: CERT, Full Disclosure, and Security By Obscurity In some mail from Grant Bayley, sie said: > Access Denied > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > This information is only accessible to authorised AusCERT members. > If you wish to access this document.

Even when it was Government funded, they had bugger all in the way of (hardware) resources because it arose inside a Uni I suppose my advice here is do not think of AusCERT or treat them like an organisation that provides free service(s).
