Re: Redhat 6.2 Honeypot Hacked

have had many emails from Romanians offering to 
translate the IRC bits.

 A few weeks ago we had a colocation customers machine get hacked into by 
a couple of romanians who then used it as a BNC bouncer for themselves and 
some friends. I've had an IRC client in their channel watching them for 
weeks and was going to notify all of the various hosts I see them join 
from.

 The BNC logs from the hacked machine show (I have an rsync of it) all of 
the machines they connect from, IRC servers they connected to as well as 
most of the IRC conversations for the month and a half they had access to 
the machine.
