>The hack came in through ssh. IMO, your best defence is an extremely strong root password; I am often mortified by looking at my logs and seeing all of the login attempts through SSH.
OT: I am not up on Linux script-kiddie type tools, but I assume that there is a script of some sort that automates SSH probes. Can anyone suggest a good counter i.e. honeypot or throttling logon attempts. Yes, I know I can google it, but I'd rather hear the opinion of real Linux experts rather than the "experts" at About.com. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
