Denial of Service..
We were hit with a brief denial of service attack that exhausted network
buffers on eskimo. It was too brief to determine the exact nature of the
attack, but it looked like some sort of UDP flood, hitting random ports all
over the place. But no sooner did I get a netstat -a in on the machine when
it had stopped.
