I'm sure glad you added the (yet, anyway) qualification Daryl, cause
they do get it, regularly. I'd think they were on a monthly exlax
schedule at times. Whats worse, they rely on us, the users, to alert
them that their winderz box has been rooted, again.
Being north, and sometimes west and east, of the border I don't use
Verizon. The telco here doesn't use Windows either. Instead they're
running BIND 8.2.2-P3 -- 8.3.0-T2A on Solaris 2.6 - 7 (SPARC) on all of
their DNS machines.
I think my favourite was when someone edited their reverse zone to
return "bells-network-is-full-of-security-holes" for everything.
