   About three weeks ago I wrote a program that listens along with in.telnetd
   and manages to read the username and password by using some tricks.
   I sent the program to SUN and CERT, who have rushed out new versions
   for SunOS. But apart from a 'we have received your mail and will forward it
   to someone' absolutely no news, mail, nothing about this.
   So, I want to know, what's up ? Has anyone heard anything ?

   Greetings, Rob

No doubt you can expect the NSA to be knocking on your door in a matter of
minutes.

Greetings, NSA
