[ale] hackers and thier methods

[Chris Fowler]

You just explined.  I guess this is something like multiple partitions on a
Mainframe.  You need a manager to mange the common resources
shared by each instance of an OS.  You can write protect the drives.
Utilities on the drives may still be used for a DOS attacke or anything
else.

Evey base has to be covered.

cat < /dev/hda1 > /dev/null & cat < /dev/hda1 > /dev/null & cat < /dev/hda1
> /dev/null

Readonly did not protect you from me tkaing your load averges sky high.  DOS

Why not just write protect the drive or drives.  Or better
yet saw this on a $500,000.00 Machine.  The code was in
Intel bus language, ( What ever that was/is).  It still
loaded a OS on top though.  I just couldn't help but wonder
why.  Course The machine having no less than 3 systems ( CPU
with their own OS).

it offers no hacks as i see it but i suppose my REAL
question is, can a
linux hacker or someone hacking linux run programs outside
of your box that
will configure, alter the box? or do you have to add
programs such as a text
editor in order to alter text? and what stops them from
installing or
"planting" them on my server?
