Please excuse if this has been posted before, I did a quick search of the archives and found nothing This hasn't been sent to MS, as I don't know an email address to send it to, Aleph, if you find it worthy of sending, please forward a copy to the MS people for their attention. Cheers. I was playing around with PPTP last night, and discovered that, with "very" minimal effort, I could cause my friends NT Server (version 4, service pack 4) to reboot instantly, without shutting down. All I did was telnet to the port (1723) on the NT box, and then send the following data. hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (that's 256 'h's for those who don't want to count :-) and hit return. nothing. BUT, then I hit ^D and all hell broke loose. The NT server dropped like a stone, full hardware reboot. I tested this multiple times and always got the same response. The NT Server was version 4, with Service pack 4 applied. Cheers Simon
