    Hmmm.... we saw an attack two days ago against an apache server which 
    consisted of GETs and POST followed by long strings of Xs followed by shell
    code.  They did not get in so I don't have any other leaving from the attack.
    Nor did snort pick up the attack, it did detect various ftp exploits
    launched against the box from the same address and that was what drew my
    attention to it.
