I flagged this. The likely explanation is that this is just a troll -- 2-day-old account, this is the only question that's been asked on it. There's no way that somebody that's been doing audits for 10 years would ask for this stuff, and there's no way any server admin would even consider providing the information. ...At least, any server admin that shouldn't be yoinked back down to making patch cables.
- DrJokepu 15y agoIt's a throwaway account. It has "throwaway" in its name. The question ends with the asker explaining that he's posting it from a throwaway account because he doesn't want his real name associated with it. How many questions would you expect a throwaway account to have?
- thaumaturgy 15y agoI know what throwaway accounts are, and I read his username. It's still a troll.
- bartl 15y agoIf there's a kind of person on the internet that I dislike more than trolls, it is people who see trolls in everyone.
- thaumaturgy 15y agoOK. Thanks for sharing?
- freejack 15y agoThe Internet is a great opportunity for everyone to form relationships and build bridges with one another. Every bridge has a troll.
- yuhong 15y agoYea, I can understand why they asked this from a throwaway account. Ideally it should not be needed, but...
- danparsonson 15y agoRegarding the age of the account, there is a note at the end of the post: "Sidenote; I'm posting from a throw-away account to (mostly) dis-associate my name from this post"
- code_duck 15y agoI agree, either this is untrue or is the product of someone very dumb. The four minutes I spent reading that were an utter waste of time.
- scott_s 15y agoTroll or not, it generated good responses and summaries of standard security.
