Lucky you didn't get fined by your rental car company - there are reasons those provisions are in the agreement and I believe most of the modern cars have GPS units on them. We took a tour up there about 6 years ago, going on a specially modified bus that had no problem hitting the summit (I'm also surprised they let a rental car up the final road as they limit the traffic up there to keep the dust level down which can impact the observations - I thought you had to have a sticker/permit to go up to the top)

The big problem here is the VPS user has no clue about his operating system, this will end in tears, most likely the hacker kind.

Yes the hacker will be laughing so hard when he finds this poor SOB's VPS he will be crying... doing stuff like this when you do not know what you are doing is just asking for trouble if you plan on using it in a production environment. Get a clue and get someone competent to run the system, don't try to do it on the cheap (or don't be surprised when you get owned).
