Subject:      Re: Posting of NetWare security hacks.

From the Computer Security Frequently Asked Questions:

   Q.6 Isn't it dangerous to give cracking tools to everyone?

   That depends on your point of view.  Some people have complained that
   giving unrestricted public access to programs like COPS and Crack is
   irresponsible because the "baddies" can get at them easily.

   Alternatively, you may believe that the really bad "baddies" have had
   programs like this for years, and that it's really a stupendously good
   idea to give these programs to the good guys too, so that they may check
   the integrity of their system before the baddies get to them.

   So, who wins more from having these programs freely available? The good
   guys or the bad ? You decide, but remember that less honest tools than
   COPS and Crack tools were already out there, and most of the good guys
   didn't have anything to help.

Its unfortunate that the press doesn't constantly 'rediscover' the Unix
holes, the way they do with NetWare holes, it might keep the auditors from
camping out in the server room......

Again, I didn't advocate a campaign of "search and destroy", but simply
voiced my support of the list administrators decision to not allow these
programs to be distributed here. A better analogy might be that, simply
because there are 'hackers BBSs' which allow posting of copyrighted
material, we don't have to allow it to be transmitted here. Nor do we have
to seek and and prosecute those BBSs. But, should we discover them in the
normal course of events, we should notify the proper authorities....

If I understand the question correctly, the answer is YES. The first
occurance of a word that is NOT in the dictonary or supplement is falgged
as mispelled. If it is indead correct (and you don't want to add it to the
dictonary for future ease), Choose SKIP (not skip once), This will cause
wordperfect to skip ALL occurances of that same spelling during THIS spell
check session. The next time you spell-check, the word would be flagged as
mispelled again.
Hope this answers the question.

I'm not sure what all of this recent discussion on words missing from the

even the 1/19/90 release date!  The only two obvious words that I have

like it too if I could premanently turn off the number checking function.

the wrong F-key (as I sometimes do in the heat of writing), then you

This afternoon at the WordPerfect Users Group of Chicago (not affiliated with

soundboard for the first three months and will also provide a discount to
user group members who had a WP rep run a Presentations demo for them.  Alas,
the coupon/discount will be for new users only, not current users who want
to upgrade from DrawPerfect 1.1.

There is also going to be a new product demonstrated at the PC Expo in
Chicago later this month--WordPerfect's forms generator.  It has a working
title of WordPerfect Informs (I'm not sure of the spelling).  The other
new product to be featured at the show will be Office 4.0.

Hey, has anyone heard about WordPerfect 6.0 for DOS? I read in PC Magazine
this month that it's coming out soon and it's undergoing beta testing right
now.. It's supposed to have a revamped user-interface, with Windows-like
capabilities and WYSIWYG editing (maybe). The article also said that it would
have the capability built in to print Adobe Type 1 Fonts as well as Bitstream
fonts. All this without the horsepower necessary to run Windows (like 
8 MB RAM)! My notebook can hardly wait! Does anyone have any other details
or any idea exactly when it'll come out? Thanks!

I've seen this come up, not predicably, omostly on XTs and machines
with TSRs running.

Someone recommended putting fixbios, which is distributed with WP,
in your autoexec.  It seems to help, but the incidence here is so
low it's hard to tell if it's my imagination.

(Fixbios.com is on the wp install/utilities disk, I believe.)

Michael:  What system do you use WP on?  You imply that simply hitting the
wrong function key will inadvertently encrypt your document.  I use WP for
DOS, and after hitting F5, I must also make two more specific keystrokes
PLUS some keys other than <ENTER>.  I don't know how WP works on other
systems, but I would assume it would need the same number of keystrokes,
making accidental encryption VERY, VERY unlikely.

PrimeTime is a printing program that will make a HPIIP plus printer print
PostScript fonts.  I use it, am satisfied with it, and can recommend it.
It costs around $65 at the usual discount/mail order places, requires a
fair bit of disk space (2-3 megs, as I remember) and runs seamlessly with
WordPerfect.

The wpcorp-l-faq posting was mailed to me rather than posted.

There is a bug in some old version of VAX/VMS VNEWS that makes them
incapable of dealing with some multi-line header fields.  It looks to
me like your site choked on your Summary field.

There are two possible solutions to this:

1) Get rid of the multi-line Summary, for now.

2) Ask your admins (or you can do it, if you are the admin :-) to get
the fix for this problem.  It is widely available, and a posting in
the relevant newsgroup asking about it should turn up someone who
knows the solution.

Sorry about the trouble.

Have you tried using the convert program that comes with WP? It's
excellent. If you installed the utility programs, it's at your DOS
line. just run the program, it's fairly self-explanatory.

Facelift, it's the ..., well, it's available.
