| Welcome to the next generation of Phrack magazine. A kinder, gentler, Phrack. | |
| A seasoned, experienced Phrack. A tawdry, naughty Phrack. A corpulent, | |
| well-fed Phrack. Phrack for the whole family. Phrack for the kids, Phrack | |
| for the adults. Even Phrack for the those enjoying their golden years. | |
| If you thought 48 was a fluke, here is 49, RIGHT ON SCHEDULE. Full speed | |
| ahead, baby. We promised timely Phrack. We promised quality Phrack. Here | |
| are both in ONE CONVENIENT PACKAGE! We trimmed the fat to bring you the lean | |
| Phrack. Chock full of the healthy information you need in your diet. All | |
| natural. No artificial ingredients. No snake oil. No placebo effect. | |
| Phrack is full of everything you want, and nothing you don't. | |
| This issue is the first *official* offering from the new editorial staff. If | |
| you missed them, our prophiles can be found in issue 48. Speaking of 48, | |
| what a tumultuous situation article 13 caused. All that wacking SYN flooding. | |
| Well, it got the job done and my point across. It got vendors and programmers | |
| working to come up with work-around solutions to this age-old problem. Until | |
| recently, SYN-flooding was a skeleton in the closet of security professionals. | |
| It was akin the crazy uncle everyone has, who thinks he is Saint Jerome. We | |
| all knew it was there, but we ignored it and kinda hoped it would go away... | |
| Anyway, after this issue, I hope it *will* just go away. I have done | |
| interviews for several magazines about the attack and talked until I was blue | |
| in the face to masses of people. I think the word is out, the job is done. | |
| Enough *is* enough. " SYN_flooding=old_hat; ". Onto bigger and better things. | |
| A few more quick points (after all, you want Phrack Warez, not babbling | |
| daemon9). I want to thank the community for supporting me (and co.) thus far. | |
| Countless people have been quite supportive of the Guild, the Infonexus, and | |
| of Phrack. Time and work do permit me to get back to all of you individually, | |
| so just a quick blurb here. Thank you all. I will be using Phrack as a tool | |
| to give back to you, so please mail me (or any of the editors with your | |
| suggestions). This is *your* magazine. I just work here. | |
| Most of all, I am stoked to be here. I am giving this my all. I'm fresh, I'm | |
| ready... I'm hyped + I'm amped (most of my heros don't appear on no stamps..). | |
| Drop us a line on what you think of 49. Comments are encouraged. | |
| Bottom line (and you *can* quote me on this): Phrack is BACK. | |
| - daemon9 | |
| [ And remember: r00t may own you, but the Guild loves you ] | |
| [ TNO, on the other hand, doesn't even fucking care you exist ] | |
