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.
