I'm sorry I can't. I did, however, want to interject my two cents here ;-). From a non-professional (i.e. student) viewpoint, it's been my experience that if I take the time to write a polite email, which includes relevant bits from my log files, to the admin for the IP in question asking them to look into it, they will usually take care of it. I suppose the appropriate response to this sort of situation depends on what your hosting. I run a web-server and SSH gateway for personal use, so although extremely annoying, it wouldn't be any big loss for me if it was cracked. I suppose you could always blacklist the domain in question, and see how long it takes for anyone to complain ;-).\ -Andrew _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
