My server was used in a similar manner to control the fragrouter backdoor (the culprit got on my box through the previously trojaned irssi). I would've thought somebody would have contacted me to see if I could help track down the perpetrator, but I never heard anything (except from a Security Focus reporter). I guess people just assume that there's not going to be any evidence anyway, so there's no point in contacting the server admin. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kim Scarborough http://www.unknown.nu/kim/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
