I found the same string in a google cache link,
of course it does look suspicious, and considering how many ssh related exploits there have been,
I do not know what exactly it is.

here is the link if you are interested: http://216.239.41.104/search?q=cache:FERt5O1-qbQJ:www.rpi.edu/locker/44/001244/auth.log+%22%5C377%5C373%5C030%5C377%5C373%27%5C377%5C375%5C%22&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

the actual site url is a 404 right now

Is it some attack attempt? I've checked both full-disclosure archive and
google, unfortunately haven't found anything usable.

Thanks in advance,
