Hi again

Sorry about the delay, but we've been hacked (wu-ftpd; site exec), on one
of our Redhat
Linux boxes. Spent some time on that :-(   Had the server been a FreeBSD
box, we would
not be in such a mess right now (I never install wu-ftpd on freebsd
boxes).

Well, please find the mptable output attached.

Best regards

Stein Morten
