Don' you think that this has something to > do with the SA-00:23 released yesterday? I witnessed this LONG before the security advisory, several months ago. My systems never seem to get attacked, either. Nobody cares about a school. :-) I would blame the 3C509. It is known to be a buggy card, or at least the driver for it is buggy. Since both you and I have seen the same thing happen with the same card, it must be the card/driver. I don't like 3COM cards. :-) > One more information: I am using squid as transparente proxy.
