I tried it too: win2k English and German, SP1, 3 f7 -> reboot :) aloha guys, ANdrei Jon Westmuckett wrote:
I have also verified this - win2k english sp2 - with 2-3 F7s. However, it seems to work with command line programs other than ping - i've caused my machine to reboot by substituting telnet and even "dir /s" for ping. Additionally, it seems that the crash occurs after the command finishes executing. I saw a BSOD flicker past but i couldn't make out any details past "STOP: c000021a Fatal System Error".

On a Win2K Server SP2 on a terminal session (administrator mode) it doesn't crash the box. However: - You can create a "cmd.exe" session that is unkillable - You can't log off that session - You can't kill that session or "cmd.exe" process from the console (taskmgr.exe) - You can't log the user off from Terminal Services Manager - You can't create another instance of "cmd.exe" in that terminal session - A reboot is required to kill the session.

Here is the proof of concept: Open a Cmd Window Ping to any host (for example ping 10.100.2.1 preferred a host in your LAN), no switch needed. Just ping Now press F7 and Enter (try a couple of times quickly...less than ten , and you can see what a meaning) The machine reboots, from nothing a warm reboot. Please let me know if you have the same bug. I tried this in W2k sp2 English and Spanish. Daniel Siffredi Administrador de Red de Microinformatica. Nacion AFJP SA
