/bin is usefull... they run a sparc there, according to "file". I didn't
try queso yet, but now I don't need to go through a firewall to know about
their OS.

oh no! Eli! what have you done?

I can see the headlines tommorow, on the front page of Maariv and
Ha'aretz: "Eli Marmor assisted by a gang of hackers hiding under the
seemingly naiive cover of a LUG, have cracked comsec's internet server,
network, and Firewall-0, deleting all Logs on the way. The Evil gang
deleted the company's website and planted highly secret valuable files for
the public to access. Following the break into the server, the cunning
hacker group broker OUT of the server through the floppy drive, had a wild
party at comsec headquarters, spilling beer on the evidence against
leb.net rendering it unreadable (ComSec was just about to finally release
them, now we'll have to trust them), finally cleaned up the entire office,
deleted the party logs, jumped back in the floppy, plugged up the system
and dissappeared. ComSec claimed they had screenshots of the party, but
they can't release it for a while..."
