A Norwegian educational center for cultural preservation lost the
password to a historical database cataloging 11,000 original books
and manuscripts, but was able to recover it with help from the Web.
E-mail messages from more than 100 good Samaritans flooded the Ivar
Aasen Center for Language and Culture starting Thursday afternoon
after the organization called for aid in hacking into one of its own
databases to which the password was lost, said a message posted to
the center's Web site on Friday. Among the messages was the correct
password to the locked database, which the center
had posted online.
