I would start with contacting the sysadmin of servers on your list. You might find that one of the attackers attacked one of the systems from a legitimate Shell or Dialup. daN. At 09:31 PM 1/21/00 -0700, James Hepworth wrote:
Someone tried to get into one of our boxes here and left a door (rcp) to one of their hacked servers. They also left quite a few files on the server, large list of servers, IP addresses, usernames and root passwords + their toolbox of toy scripts. Our system did not let them delete these files, but they thought they had. I also have the console log with them chatting to each other & the commands they issued. Is there any one place to report this type of violation or should I just clam up and clean up the box? The connection (rcp) is still up (not for long I suspect tho), I would like to catch these buggers..... Thanks JAMES Tired of bad Internet search results?
