Unix
Ok, I have an account on this guys box, and he's running tar in /usr/bin.
The command is 777, but I still can't run it! The response i get is:
tar: can't open /dev/rsa0 : Permission denied
So should I ask him to chmod /dev/rsa0 to 777 or something?

Hey Jackal glad to see you made it to the confs.  This question would probably
be better answered in the jellyware conf.

Does anyone know if the hackers involved in the ebay DoS attacks have been
caught?

Not so far as I know...  I'd check 2600.org or slashdot.org for latest.

Actually, the best source for news like that (and security news in general)
is www.hackernews.com. The only busts that have happened recently were based
on last year's NASA hacks.

The guys who were ment to be investigating said that it would be impossible
to track down the culprits as they were very clever!

As to the original question, the comand  chmod 777 would give read, write,
and execute permissions to everybody. Im pretty sure you have to be root to
execute that command, though.
