okay.. so there's been tons of mail on lots of mailing lists
about this, so I'm not going to belabor the point.
it might be a good idea for service maintainers to
try and obtain this tool as early as possible and run it on
all our machines (as should Athena I suppose.. but :-)
We will probably fail many tests due to our use of
kerberos (not much we would care for), but there might be
some other obvious things out there. Since I suspect lots of
silly hackers will be trying the same, it might be smart to
avoid the silly oversights which people might find (and anyway,
it's going to be tried on us by many people from that day onwards
-- especially rtfm and www is my guess).
Anyway, since project.security is fascist, and I'm not sure
why or care, I'm creating project.insecurity and putting it in
/afs/sipb/project/insecurity
backed up / unreplicated, and world readable.
Whoever is up on april 5 first, should attempt to obtain
the sources and put it in /afs/sipb/project/insecurity/src
it will be organized like a locker, but will have no
hesiod filsys entry (for now.. if people on -i help start looking
for a locker, and it is deemed a good idea to announce it there,
then there will be one.

enjoy... yoav (and maintainers SHOULD use it and plug
the real holes...)
