This morning I noticed that logcheck is sending me huge notification emails.
There are a lot of messages from the kernel. This worries me, so I logged on to Linode's remote console.
Then I saw messages like this, scrolling very quickly on the screen:
Code: OUT-internet:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=66.160.141.215 DST=66.237.60.101 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=0 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=80 DPT=3078 WINDOW=6432 RES=0x00 ACK PSH FIN URGP=0
If I'm not mistaken, it means that 66.237.60.101 is putting HTTP requests to my server - but very rapidly.
Here's the whois result for 66.237.60.101

Does anyone know what's going on here ?
At the moment I'm trying to restart the server, but it's been 15 minutes and it's not even shut down yet.
Below is a more complete details from the Linode remote console.
Thanks,
Harry
