Date: Sun 24-May-1991 15:44:08 From: seebs@thor.acc.stolaf.edu (The Laughing Prophet) Subject: NeXT bug reports? I have no idea if this is the right place for this... Where does one send bug reports about the NeXT? The bug in question is that the loginwindow specifically will not allow people to log in, even if they type the correct password, if that password contains certain characters, which are perfectly legitimate characters. Like, anything under about 0x20... This may not sound like a bug to most of you, but the added security of allowing control-characters in passwords is really incredible, esp. since most password-guessing programs don't even consider them. --SeebS-- "...what I considered to be an odd number..." -Steven Wright
