“Microsoft issued a challenge to hackers last week to try to
crack an experimental server it established on the Net.”
“But constant system outages — some for effectively more
than 24 hours — have backfired badly on the company. Posted
system details on the server’s performance show faults including a
failure to post to the guest book, and repeated stoppages caused by
a known bug. The Internet Information Server has also been hit,
periodically unable to serve pages.”
“Meanwhile, the Linux community has come up with its own
challenge in response to Microsoft.”
