Re: [LUG] Worrying, really...

I was quite worried when I walked up to the Nationwide cash
machine (next to where the 2600 meetings start, I think) and was
greeted with:

"Welcome to NT 4.0 (with Internet Explorer).  Press Ctrl +
Alt + Delete to log on"

They use Windows Terminal servers.  But the best message I saw was "A
service failed to start in - see the event log" in London once on a
Natwest machine.  Also I've seen a cash machine which a message "Failed
to get a IP address from a DHCP server."

What we want is the ODBC error that gives server name, user
name, and password, I've seen that on a few websites. Still the
2600 group will note any information leakage I'm sure.
