I left an 2k box open last night without firewall. 1 Hour following boot time it was hit and manifested the svchost crashing. I haven't had a chance to dig deeper to see if any sort of infection is involved but I'm leaning towards DOS. /micah ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jack Bates" <jbates@brightok.net> To: "NANOG" <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Monday, August 11, 2003 1:12 PM Subject: RPC errors
I'm showing signs of an RPC sweep across one of my networks that's killing some XP machines (only XP confirmed). How wide spread is this at this time. Also, does anyone know if this is just generating a DOS symptom or if I should be looking for backdoors in these client systems?
