Date: Tue Apr 11 23:48:54 2006 From: ian.t7 at hotmail.co.uk (Ian stuart Turnbull) Subject: Shell accounts Ha Ha. Yes, not a proper fiend hey. But I take it that I would be anonymous technically. If I were to do it for real I'd probably set up an internet connection in an assumed name complete with a fake bank account so there'd be no one for the cops to berate, just the computer [with no logs] to kick. >From: Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu >To: Ian stuart Turnbull <ian.t7@...mail.co.uk> >CC: full-disclosure@...ts.grok.org.uk >Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] Shell accounts Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2006 >18:42:27 -0400 >MIME-Version: 1.0 >Received: from turing-police.cc.vt.edu ([128.173.14.107]) by >bay0-pamc1-f9.bay0.hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.1830); Tue, >11 Apr 2006 15:42:31 -0700 >Received: from turing-police.cc.vt.edu (localhost [127.0.0.1])by >turing-police.cc.vt.edu (8.13.6/8.13.6) with ESMTP id k3BMgRTB025995;Tue, >11 Apr 2006 18:42:27 -0400 >X-Message-Info: JGTYoYF78jEHjJx36Oi8+Z3TmmkSEdPtfpLB7P/ybN8= >X-Mailer: exmh version 2.7.2 01/07/2005 with nmh-1.1-RC3 >References: <BAY112-F227EBD62579F66106468D299CD0@....gbl> >Return-Path: Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu >X-OriginalArrivalTime: 11 Apr 2006 22:42:31.0805 (UTC) >FILETIME=[3817BAD0:01C65DB9] > >On Tue, 11 Apr 2006 23:26:24 BST, Ian stuart Turnbull said: > > > Suppose I had a friend who had a Linux connected to the internet and I >got > > him to set me up a username.
