I tried downloading slackware isos from ftp.romuald.net.eu.org and got up
to 649,152KB then ran into something close to a 1,000 second stall so
aborted the download. Right now this is the only Linux box available so I
don't need it hacked. That could have ben anyone on the internet
attempting to crack this system but if they did they'd have very little to
control or exploit. Actually, it was probably robot software not
individual attack. For quite a while I've had 4 processes oon this
machine not visible to root shown by chkrootkit so I'll runchkrootkit and
see if I now have more invissible processes. The flavor of Linux on this
system is now 2004 sarge speakup debian and according to chkrootkit it
appears to have been infected by lkm. I thought that was only supposed to
be a sun/solaris problem but evidently not necessarily so.
