in case you're wondering

Someone appears to be hammering my poor web server at the moment, plus any other open ports they can find on waider.ie. I've pulled the ethernet cable for the moment; I'd like to kill the httpd except that with the load average at 140 the machine isn't exactly responsive.



update: and we're back. I have no idea what happened as I don't appear to have anything in the logfiles that suggests being 0wnz0red. GRR.
