Be very careful with this.
In many countries (US is one), "retaliation" is illegal ad subject to the
same prosecution as the hackers themselves.

I usually put my 2 servers to do some DoS on the script kiddies =)
They usually stop very quickly.

Fire against fire =)

Hi Kenny

I would have less of a problem with someone scanning my firewall which I
know to be secure.

What bugs me is that while doing the port scan, or the attempted
Microsoft-DS attack on port 445 etc, they are generating a large amount
of
traffic on my link and thus generating a "sortof" DoS attack instead,
and
THAT's what P's me off!!

Cheers
William R.

I think pretty much everyone, at one point in time or another, has had
someone attempt to break in on their server.
Script kiddies or what be it, but my question is what do you do about
it?
Is it worth the time running a traceroute, calling their ISP yanking
some people off their chairs to do something about it or is it better
just to leave it alone?
What is everyone's general policy for people running scans and checking
your web server for possible exploits?
Is it even possible to do anything until they do something to you?

Curiosity filled,
  Kenny Mann
