more than idle threats I'm afraid

    To make a long story short, I woke up yesterday
to find this in my home
directory :    

./MeMe156/agent.agency.08.14.02.2348/added
.agent.sol


after looking through ;
/var/adm/messages
/var/adm/syslog

to no avail, I used what I thought to be a clever
script that logs
auth.notice messages. NOTHING

/var/log/utmp; /var/log/utmpx
/var/log/wtmp; /var/log/wtmpx
/var/log/syslog

nothing. But then /var/log/sulog  showed me this;
SU 03/31 12:52 + pts/0 <userid>-root
 and /var/adm/messages revealed this
Mar 31 12:48:41 ***.***.***.*** unix: rebooting...

almost convenient that it was there at all. If
anyone else has any
information remotely related please respond.

I administer a private lab running 2 Sun LX50's
involved in active Ionospheric
research and HF analysis.

Sure, more than an idle threat to you, but only
because you waited too long to mitigate or prevent the
usability or an exploit on your systems, or you didn't
prevent remote/networked access prior to now.  What's
new about this?  What's especially scary?  Nothing.

These kids are full of piss and wind.  Increasing age
prevents an inexhaustible supply of them.  Humor them.
 It's funny to watch them rant about the coming
apocalypse of blackhat justice.
