Actually we have an unpatched (default install) "remote" box
unconnected to the rest of out network put out as a sitting duck, so
we can go see what happens to it every few hours, before restoring it
to it's "I'm a victim" state. For no other reason then it's
interesting to see what the hell goes on in the wild unpatched world
of the internet. All outgoing traffic is logged and blocked if it
seems to be effecting other people (i.e. launching DDOS attacks etc).
While I think it's of utmost important to patch systems, it's also
kinda cool to try and work out the nitty-gritty of what's actually
going on.
The latest excitement is the "h..p://www.worm.com" text changing from
black to red :)
I'm sure people are going to have moral objections to knowingly not
patching a box. But sometimes it can be the difference between
blindly patching a machine without knowing what's going on, or
patching the rest of your machines with some knowledge.
OB ColdFusion;
When using <cfmodule>, what are the speed implications of using the
dot notation vrs the slash notation (name vrs template)? We may put
an application on a system where they don't allow custom tags, so we
may change all our <cfmodules> from using dot notation to slash. Then
we wondered what good reasons there were for not doing this anyway.
Cheers,
Dan.
