Hey everyone, just a note to let you know about a malicious User from
symaptico.ca.
I received an alarm on my firewall, a user tried to use a netbus Trojan to
bring down the server. Probably an ICMP flood. Anyway, I got the log and Ip
address of the user. Did a nslookup on the address and then a whois on the
domain. Called the phone # on the Whois record and spoke with their admin,
who said send a message to abuse@xxxxxxxxxxxx and they would take care of
it.
My question is what right do I have at this point?
Heads up
Thanks,
Johnc
