RE: OT - Terry Childs, CCIE#14018

I know if this was the CISSP he'd lose it. Technically he only withheld a
password and did not change the systems. I am amazed that the IT dept did not
have a set of procedures for device backups and centralized AAA... These are
very simple concepts that can be used for large networks and even are part of
audit requirements. hopefully city governments can learn from this case and
adopt sound technology and personnel policies. If he's insane then perhaps
this approach was the wrong one by all involved. As for your soap comment - I
really do not see how he deserves what you are implying to be the outcome. Not
very mature in my book and it has nothing to do with the case, the
technologies involved or the purpose of this forum. Next time keep your hopes
of sodomy to yourself. Travis

In my books i hope he's the soap dropper in jail

If he didn't handle the pwd for 12 days it shows how full of himself was

Let's imagine that he was right, he should've handle the password the
supervisor will do something stupid on the network he would've been a champ.

The money sound like a lot but let's imagine 500 devices we all know is a 15
minutes job but the change management the planing all this gets billed

My guess is that they went after him and really boosted the bills so they can
sue him

I did worked with the same type of network nazi and he was a CCIE also (not as
bad as Terry but close, very close) everytime that you talked to the guy he
was saying CCIE every second phrase....

Maybe CISCO could do a dishonorable discharge of his number

Perhaps terry was right about the guy's skills if SF had to spend 900,000 of

have walked them through it. I am guessing the article is missing a lot of
data.
