OK, I know this is not exactly on-topic, but I thought it was ridiculous
enough to share.
Here's what I get from the logs on my IRIX web server running apache:
> egrep "scripts/\.\..*" access_log | grep "18/Sep/2001" | wc -l
7273
> egrep "msadc/\.\..*" access_log | grep "18/Sep/2001" | wc -l
809
> egrep "_vti.*/\.\..*" access_log | grep "18/Sep/2001" | wc -l
811
so, that's 8,893 bogus MS exploit requests. note too, that those numbers grew
by about 5% in about 5 minutes. Damn, I'm glad I don't run a windows machine
:)
