Hi Marty/List,
When implementing a honey-pot, if an cracker detects the presence of a
deception like toolkit is the attacker not being invited to
login/crack/exploit this pot-o-honey?  Is this not similar to a agent or cop
in full uniform holding out a bag of crack and saying, "Take it, take it - I
got this crack for ya, take it."  And if your a crack head - your damn well
going to take the goods.
What are the applicable legalities?  Could this honey-pot also degrade your
network wide prosecutorial rights - one honey pot designating the entire
network fair game?
Oh oh oh, I like this one - Does this not parallel hanging a bag of CraCK on
a tree in your front yard and then shooting any takers?
Anyhow just some allergy ridden late night babble.......
