Debian 4.0 is no longer getting security patches. I would worry that someone is logging and and trying to gain root. If possible, take it off the net and back it up using a boot-CD. I've been dealing with old Debian and Ubuntu servers lately. If you handle payment-cards, it's no longer acceptable to leave them on your network. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
