It is easy to break a system if I give you the root password.

But I'll tell you what.  You can attempt to crack your way into it, and
then provide me with the configuration of the resolver, which will be
sufficient evidence that you've broken your way into the system.

If you want to attempt to get root access and prove that you've done it,
then go ahead and make my two read-only partitions, read-write.  Go for it.

You have from now, 17:50 on Wednesday 5/18/2005, until 18:00 on Friday,
5/20/2005.  If you can not make the changes in that amount of time, then
I will have won.  If you can, then you will have won.

That's that.  Now, go.  Prove that my system isn't secure, go for it.

Nope.  But I am telling YOU, Drew, to go ahead and try to break my box.
 I am not authorizing anyone else to do so.  So, c'mon.  You have 48
hours and ten minutes.  Run.
