Hi.
The last few lines in the relevant  /etc/httpd/logs/error_log
read:
[Fri Dec 28 17:14:40 2001] [error] [client 217.162.17.1] File does not
exist: /var/www/htmlTest/scripts/..À¯../winnt/system32/cmd.exe

[Sun Dec 30 04:02:01 2001] [notice] SIGHUP received.  Attempting to
restart

Given that I did not log in & restart server at 0402 on Dec 30 (!), is
this evidence of an intrusion? (The server *did* restart at 0402 as
evidenced by the current error_log:

me at work> head error_log
[Sun Dec 30 04:02:02 2001] [notice] Apache/1.3.14 (Unix)  (Red-Hat/Linux)
PHP/4.0.1pl2 mod_perl/1.24 configured -- resuming normal operations


All the best & HNY,

John
