Like someone else said, nothing special. Assuming your sshd and passwords are configured correctly, they won't get in. I got so many of them, though, that my log filled the partition. So I wrote a little shell script that checks for this frequently, and blocks the naughty IP(s) for a few days. -- Glenn English [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG ID: D0D7FF20 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
