In February 2005, WSO was hacked by a group of Brazilians calling themselves Simiens Crew 2005.
 
==Servers==
 
The current roster:
 
'''Ursula''' is the latest addition to the cage. Lean and sleek, she's an Xserve with dual G5 processors and 2 gigs of RAM. Don't bump into her, though, unless you're a deaf person in need of a metronome. Ursula runs shell logins, email forwarding, and listservers.

'''Nancy''' houses dual P4-Xeons at 2.7GHz a pop, and due to a hyperthreading kernel she's faking another two. With over fifty Gigs of RAID-5 storage and 2GB of ram, she can handle pretty much anything we ask her to. Also, there's a cool quadruply redundant power supply that lets her operate even if two (three?) power supplies break down, and a neat blue LCD on the front that turns orange when something's wrong. Nancy is currently doing all of our web and database serving. Here's a picture of Nancy:

'''Spiker''' has dual Pentium III 500MHz processors under the hood, 1024 MB of ram, and over 100 GB of RAID storage, plus another hundred in a shameful IDE drive running at 33 MHz that's hanging out of her front side. See:

Spiker is currently hosting POP and IMAP connections.

==Listservers==
WSO uses Mailman 2.1.5 4 to power its listservers. A complete list of WSO listservers is available from [http://wso.williams.edu/mailman/listinfo].
