Title: What happens if...
Post by: sleepin_dude_99 on October 26, 2007, 12:22:02 PM
Someone like Silver or VaatixGannon gets their password guessed?

Am I right in saying that Admins cannot ban other admins, they can ban mods.

I think, right?

So we're all screwed if one of the heads gets 'hacked' so to speak.

We'd be intercourse ed.

ADMINS, MAKE SURE YOUR PWS ARE NOT JSNAKE.

This would be why it's prudent to have a strong password if you're a staff member...and admins can ban other admins if they remove them from the root group. At least, that's the way that it works on Invision. I'm assuming it's similar for SMF.

And brute force password-guessing attacks are the least of your worries; you should be more concerned about the forum exploits that people can run if they really want to take a place over.
