Heise: Hackermeeting hacked?
From the Heise article about the Chaos Communication Camp by the CCC:
The ports of the camp systems connected to the network have been scanned far and wide
since Friday evening, to find the weak spot in the "enemy" system. The organisers had
warned all "green" users to do Telnet sessions with encryption only, to make life not
too easy for the password sniffers. But about 6:30 PM, the catastrophy happened: the
systems suddenly denied any exchange of data with each other or internet. The Network
Operation Center (NOC) at the campsite surrendered and issued a "Red Alert". Even in
the early morning of Saturday, the NOC was still offline.
