Hi,

I got this entry today on 3 different solaris boxes...
Is this some kind of statd exploit?
The OS is Solaris 8 (and Solaris 2.6)...

All of the entries have the same pattern and time (probably 1 or 2
seconds difference). A script kiddie attack?

At the same time, my FreeBSD box gave me this entry...
Is it related? (based on the time)...
