No flames for scare mongering please. I > thought it was an acceptable oddity, no more! I read it and shrugged, but went looking for it anyway. Not found. One of the IT guys at work who only knows windows told me that the worms had some effect on linux, I said "I don't think so" and he replied that Symantec had shown one of them effecting linux. So I went looking and all that came up was the drdos, which is old and is part of the chkrootkit test. I can't convince him that it was not a problem cause Symantec said it was. Oh well, you can lead a horse to water........... Anyone seen any other indications that somebody thinks one of the virus or worms was getting into linux? -- Dennis M. linux user #180842
