I see about 300% more attempts than in July, but close to one-third of those do not appear to be code red. They seem to be what I would have suspected. People trying to mask attempts under the noise of code red. Nonetheless, it is getting annoying enough that I am close to moving all the windoze machines off to a private switched network until this is over. No, I'm not afraid of them being compromised, but some of them do seem to be getting hit harder than the rest of my computers. What I don't understand is why my openbsd laptop attracts so much attention. Uname -a shows OpenBSD scorpion 2.6 GENERIC#696 i386, hardly an attractive target for code red in my book. No, it's not running a web server. The only service it actually offers is sshd. At first it was interesting, then annoying, now it's just boring. Most of the non-code red attempts I see are from apnic, for what that's worth. -- You've confused equality of opportunity for equality of outcomes, and have seriously confused justice with equality. -- Woodchuck
