Hi all, in the past days our network was stressed from a lot of network worm (not find from local antivirus, already up to date) with a stop of the traffic caused from a lots of arp request. The last one was the WORM_SDBOT.ACJ a worm that propagates itself using network shares and a worm that trend micro (up to date) was unable to find, causing the saturation of the network switches and the related stop of all the work. The question is: "is there the possibility to setup an instrument (even linux based) to sniff the network traffic with capabilities to find worm?". We have already a linux based tool for network monitoring, this tool is useful to isolate host with a lots of ARP request (typical of the worm), but this tool can't point us to which worm is doing the traffic. Thanks a lot Luis ___________________________________ Nuovo Yahoo! Messenger: E' molto più divertente: Audibles, Avatar, Webcam, Giochi, Rubrica Scaricalo ora! http://it.messenger.yahoo.it
