Sorry to butt in, but Satan 1.0 is history. Turns out there was a (very well advertised) security hole for anyone *running* Satan-1.0. Satan-1.1 is available from among other places, ftp://ftp.gsfc.nasa.gov:/pub/security/satan-1.1.tar.Z Goddard Space Flight Center should be a pretty safe archive. It makes so easily (there's relatively little C) that a genuine port is hardly needed, and you have the reassurance that you have the real thing. Oops--except that you need perl5. > Scott Mewett | With the lights out its less dangerous > Systems Programmer | Here we are now > QUT | Entertain us > Brisbane, Australia | I feel stupid and contagious > Email: mewett@fit.qut.edu.au | Here we are now > Phone: (07) 864 2247 | Entertain us > Fax: (07) 864 1959 > Web: http://www.fit.qut.edu.au/~scott Chuck Bacon - crtb@helix.nih.gov ABHOR SECRECY - DEFEND PRIVACY
