I think it depends on what kind of damage he has created . You should
have an estimated loss of abt 5000 to report to the local police ..

Well what i would do is .. Join the IRC and watch his moves ..

Subject: what to do with a script kiddie

Hi,
I was operating my honeynet successfully over some days. I "catched"
an intruder and monitored him closely for about 11 days. He was not
very skilled, the term "script kiddy" fits the bill. I got some IPs of
his copromised attack hosts and a lot of his passwords, for example his
CSERVICE IRC password. I wonder what to do with that information now,
as the intention of my study was my diploma thesis. Should I "snatch"
his IRC channels and expose him? What have you done after getting such
information? I am really interested in your experiences.
yours
Christian

P.S. roo is a breeze!
