The only problem my laptop wearing FreeBSD 4.3 has is me always experimenting. I have two other FreeBSD boxes one of which is on a DSL hookup. I foolishly left it open ( telnet and ftp enabled) for a week and found it seriously compromised this morning. Several binaries were replaced and log files emptied. Given my skill level (security novice -- recently owned) , I will reformat and reinstall on a new drive, slave the compromised drive and copy over what I will save. This should take less time with better results than trying to fix. My question is. Is there a team working security that would be interested in a tarball of the files and binaries that are compromised? Please advise. This is the only group I am subscribed to. Thanks.
