So you wouldn't mind if people started scanning your network for other problems, say... rootable boxes? Without being able to break into remote boxes, kiddies wouldn't be able to launch smurf attacks of sizes to worry about. I'm not saying that having a list is a bad idea. But it should be a list of amps that have been found using logs from attacks, not by going out and scanning for them -- John Payne http://www.sackheads.org/jpayne/ [email protected] http://www.sackheads.org/uce/ Fax: +44 870 0547954 To send me mail, use the address in the From: header
