Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Did I just get hacked???

A long time ago when a LAMP box of mine got hacked.. they installed a
program in /tmp/<random characters>  that would connect to IRC
servers.  Basicly they made my box a bot.   The way I found it was I
saw outgoing IRC connections when I was in netstat looking for
something else.

They got me thorugh and expolit in awstats which I no longer run.
The only way I was sure that I got rid of the hack was I wiped and
reloaded the machine from scratch.

Long of it is.. check for odd processes as well.
