Do you have an anonymous FTP server up?

If so, that's probably where they got in from.

Either disable anonymous FTP or limit write access. :)

Subject: exploited win2k box, not quite sure how:



Got a wierd one here.

Win2k server, SP2
IIS 5.0
SQL server 7
ipswitch imail 6.x

Its definitely been broken into. PC-cillian bas picked up a few nimda
files, and there is a directory c:\tAGGEd with various subdirectories
under it, and an unopenable file C:\TaGGed By Ca$e.

I'm working on getting a disk image up for perusal, but that might take a
few days.

Anybody seen this yet? Searching securityfocus, McAfee, Google, and a few
other places has come up dry.
