Depends. They have to track it down. My organization is getting them a lot internally. ICMP fragment flood, UDP flood, you name it. Everything has been from Linux boxes. Once we track it, we just kill the switch port and notify the sys admin that their box has been compromised.

I notice that some people called and asked why we have a water problem. I was a little confused, untill I thought about it.

We are not have a "Flood" :)

anyways, hope there no confusion about the flood / dos attack we were having.

When I said dos, they replied with, i thought you were running linux..

I've called the CIA hotline and told them that Brazil is harbouring terrorists and to go in with guns blazin'. That should teach them a lesson.
