Coincidence...?
For several days now, spam attempts to my machine have been virtually non-existant... Last night, I was doing some research on rsync issues and this morning woke up to an onslaught of spam attempts... these were all rejected via my "unknown-host" rule; but I thought I'd raise the issue... Unfortunately, I hit almost all the mirrors (>>50) and ~33 which were at least running rsync, so I have no way to tell which one(s) might be compromised... If anyone clearly notices an increase in spam shortly after visiting a specific mandrake mirror, I'd be interested in a private mail about it... :^Pierre "Spam-Killer" Fortin Update: since posting this on expert a few minutes ago, I've received confirmation from ORDB of 3 open relays detected... spam-fighting *does* work.
