Hi all,

I had  a similar suspicion as my server was target for the last 17 hours
of something I suspected t opossibly be a DOS attack (if it grew a little more;).
It was *not*.

I called the owner of the IP and just in the last minutes he corrected this.
According to him the machine went amok, whatever.
 Relax guys, and please verify
the 'attack' is over.  :)

Regards

Hans
