RE: Penetration test of 1 IP address

[Bob Radvanovsky <rsradvan () unixworks net>]

I would tend to agree with that statement.  members of this list no idea if the the individual posing the question has 
nefarious intentions, or not.

No disrespect to the original poster of the question to the list, or the moderator for that matter, in extremely 
paranoid times these days, simply uttering the wrong word in public (within the context of a sentence) can get you a 
one-way ticket into jail these!  So...take things a down a few notches and remember that hacking these days, esp. in 
the eyes of our governments (federal, state, local), not to mention Corporate America, views it as a form of 
"cyberterrorism" -- first and foremost -- BEFORE they would ever consider it NOT to (OK...that sounded way too 
circular, but if you read it carefully, you'll understand what I'm trying to convey) be labelled as "cyberterrorism".

In my defense (as a form of disclaimation), the requesting individual mentioned the word "/webblaze", and I simply 
looked it up on Google -- nothing more.  I have not mentioned any methods of attack, or how he should go about 
attempting a penetration into that server.  That is left entirely up to that individual.  ;)
