Please see Clifford Stoll's book The Cuckoo's Egg for a description of tracking an intruder across various PSTN, PSDN and Internet providers. I haven't seen a better description of the process.
And there were, what?, three US ISPs back then?
And when Stanford was getting hacked, where was BBN... Answer: right on the Stanford campus, in Stanford buildings!
We don't have the same Internet architecture as we had during The Cuckoo's Egg era.
I was sort of wondering how long it would take for someone to send this kind of a response. I suppose my question should have included the phrase "current solutions" or equivalent. Still hoping for some good answers.... Thanks. Rajesh.
