('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) In-Reply-To: <20030125021141.A23211at_private> This is indeed happening widely tonight. Some of the client machines here have been hit as their boxes were not patched up properly. We have firewalled access and have brought our core switches online again after a brief interruption where the traffic here got up to a little over 110Mbits/s. The switches simply went into failover. The good news is that it is not autonomous, so you can control access through port filtering until the patches are applied.
