Well, except for the fact that the message *originated* from him. I suspect he installed rwhod without realizing (or is it rstatd? I don't remember, having purged them long ago). I almost made the same mistake that you did, not realizing at first that the packets originated on his machine. Had that not been the case then ignoring the packets completely would make the most sense. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
