Successful Intrusion into my system


Just thought you guys would want to know about a successfull hack (dunno if
you've decided wether thats the right word yet?) into my mail server.

I realised something was wrong when I could'nt find <ifconfig> or <ps>. They
had been deleted and a process called t0rns or something was running when I
reinstalled <ps>. This seemed to have been logging all usernames and
passwords in a file called something like /usr/lib/.puta/system.

On checking the log I saw the following output:-
