As far as I know, /dev/ttyv* are the local virtual consoles. SSH login attempts would be on /dev/ttyp*. So if you're sure it's on ttyv0, this is your system / primary console (first virtual console) which needs physical access to be used. But I'm sure there would be a strange way to pass something from or to /dev/ttyv0 using... redirection maybe? Are you sure that nobody tried to use your computer physically? > Can someone tell me how to turn off the broadcast option for my lan, if it's > possible. I think a server named chill is attacking me. Where did you get this evidence from? Check /var/log/auth.log and /var/log/xfer.log and /var/log/ftpd.log (if you're running FTP services). -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
