Implications of recent virus (Trojan Horse) attack

[Peter da Silva]

One side effect that I don't like is that UNIX is taking the blame for
a combination of (1) a security hole in an application (sendmail), and
(2) deliberate loosening of security to trusted sites (rhosts, etc...).

Non-academic UNIX in general is a lot less open to techniques like this.
