Hello-

What is the best way to deal with getting logs for someone attacking my 
box?  I am not really sure, but I think it may involve tcpdump.  Is 
there any way to implement this so that it can be running before an 
attack happens?.....see the problem is, that I do not have physical 
access to the box and if it is taken down(unaccessible by remote means), 
I cannot log in to start a dump.  What can I do in this case, or what 
are my options, if I want to have the network connections dumped somehow 
with no intervention?....is that a tall order?

Thanks,
Bob
