If they want to hack a coco that bad, i say let em :)  but since we're
giving out root access without passwords to anyone that want to play
anyway, probably a waste of time.

I have already had our first denial of service attack it would seem,
and the funny thing is that while the Java part crashed a few times,
the coco has yet to miss a beat so far.

Just put some fixed in the java side, it might last longer this time :)
