Perhaps you're thinking about "honeypots," real systems operated normally but closely monitored with the specific purpose of inviting attention from script kiddies and other dregs. There isn't anything special about the software they run; they are just very closely watched by the honeypot operators. But what would be the utility of such a system for you? They don't keep crackers out--quite the contrary. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bsd Neophyte" <bsdneophyte@yahoo.com> To: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2001 23:38 Subject: script-kiddie trap? > > I remember something about a year or two ago.
