I just want it to stop sucking my bandwidth and filling my access logs, so I took a totally different approach in minimizing the problem. On just one of my machines, I have 5 hosts each on it's own IP. I added a 6's server that only listens to local connections. On the 5 main servers, I have

It appears that delaying this worm on one system is effective, but it is multi-threaded to some extent because a single attacker is simultaneously attacking a couple of our machines. I have 3 in jail on one server, 7 on another, and 3 on another... Jim The attack code isn't multi-threaded: if
