Kurt,

Yes probably bad form in the sense that IBM wasn't given a chance to fix it
before it was made public.

In the fact of making it public, probably not - the more voices IBM hears in
regard to security holes the better. I can search the Internet for hundreds
of publicly posted exploits for Unix, Win9x/NT and even my favourite BeOS.

Do you know of the IBM AS/400 Security alert email address ? If so post it
here !
