[PEN-TEST] Recourse Tech. and Manhunt

hi all,

does anyone have information on the recourse technologies product
"manhunt" or anything else that's not on their web pages?

(for those that don't want to go to www.recourse.com and read up on the
product.  there's also some info in the pen-test archives starting
10/2/00.)

what i'm really interested in is manhunt's dependence on other manhunt
products, as well as network infrastructure.  the FAQ says that each
manhunt monitor can communicate with other manhunts upstream and
downstream to coordinate information gathering and to perform tracing of
a denial of service attack.  this seems like it has a real vulnerability
from saturation of the communication links between up/downstream
monitors...

anyway, thoughts are appreciated.

jon
