question has formed in my mind. My interpretation of VR 2.0 was that
the security tally is unique to the HOST, not just the decker. IE: if
decker A raised the sec tally on a host to 8, logged off, and then
decker B would enter the host, the sec tally would still be at 8. I
thought the the security tally was an indication of how much a
particular host has been "screwed" with. If a host is on passive alert,
it WILL be on passive alert no matter which decker enters it. Right?
(Well, at least until it resets itself.) So why wouldn't the security
tally stay the same on the host no matter which decker is doing what.
For example......two deckers both log on to a host. Wouldn't the host
have ONE security tally and add to that all success achieved against
EITHER decker? At this point, I don't really know if I'm making much
sense, but if anyone out there can understand me, please put this in
terms that the rest of the list can understand. And....an answer to my
question would be nice. <:-)
