Cool, NT, stability <cough>.  What do you mean by shutdown?  What kind of
firewall was run on the NT server?  Did the whole system bluescreen or
shutdown, or did the firewall in place fail closed?  Part of the problem
here is a lack of information on what you are trying to determine
happened, as well as whether or not there was a IDS system in place to log
an attack if it indeed did occur, let alone the direction of the issue, it
well could have been something lauched from inside as others have and will
mention.

Thanks,

OK, so you're a Ph.D.  Just don't touch anything.
