That wouldn't be the first time, I think. That a DOS attack
occurs
inadvertently, I mean.  not that our resident Priscilla

Look up slashdot effect in the Jargon File.

That was a very interesting article.   I knew things like that went on,
but
have never had a person experience of such.
I liked the detail that was gone into about the solution.  I am
forwarding
the link to friends.

The article on Windows XP was just as scary.
Thank you so much Priscilla, I'm going to pass your find on to some
other network folks that could use it.

They have two T-1s. The article was just headlined by the latest SANS.org
newsletter. Imagine that they are getting quite a few hits.
