I don't need ssh. I was curious. I'm very far down the food chain in a
large beauracracy, in fact I don't even know what the firewall policy is
and would not know who to contact to see if I could get approval to run
ssh.I suppose I could call back the person that called me when I used
port 53. He was
concerned we'd been compromised and was relieved when I told him I was
aware of it. BTW I'm the poor soul stuck with the job of administering
this 60 pc, 4 server piece of heaven and I'd be pissed if I thought
someone was doing this in my stomping grounds but that doesn't mean I
wouldn't like to know how they did it !
