Synopsis: Hacker/Security Newsletter with announcement mailing list;




      Whats in a name? why HWA.hax0r.news??
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      
           
     HWA stands for Hackers Without Attitudes, as a group we have been around since 1984
     Cruciphux in his infinite wisdom decided to chronicle the events of the underground
     and hacking/security "scene" a year ago and thus HWA.hax0r.news was born.
     
     The name is a piss-take on current culture's values and views on the hacking and
     cracking underground scene, the dots in the name is a pisstake of the "internet"
     proliferation and inundation in the media, besides it looks kinda l33t.
     
     In case you couldn't figure it out hax0r is "new skewl" and although it is laughed at,
     shunned, or even pidgeon holed with those 'dumb leet (l33t?) dewds' (see article in 
     issue #4) this is the state of affairs. It ain't Stephen Levy's HACKERS anymore. BTW
     to all you up  and comers, i'd highly recommend you get that book. Its almost
     like  buying a clue. Anyway..on with the show .. - Cruciphux (Editor/Guy in charge)
     
     Other books i'd recommend reading:
     
     
     
     
     TCP/1P Network administration
     DNS and BIND
     TCL/TK Tools
     PERL in a nutshell (All the nutshell books are hi-class)
     
     
          
     And several others, look around on Amazon, I hear Maximum Security isn't too bad
     either but haven't read it. If you can recommend more reading materials email me
     cruciphux@dok.org and i'll post a list.
