On all the virtual hosts on my raq are thousands of requests for cmd.exe. Is this part of Nimda?

Any idea how to stop it?

Anybody else seeing this?

Hello,

Yep, that's nimda. I don't think there is any way to block that on a RaQ. On "regular" Red Hat with the righ stuff compiled into the kernel, you can block it with iptables.

ffeingol,

I have a RH 7.1.

Can you show me how?

I would suggest creating an empty file called default.ida(code red) or cmd.exe(nimda) in the location that it is looking for in your log file.

This might help. Please see:
