[SELUG] gone quite!

> Anyway, Going to Sage-ie meeting tomorrow, Its about Honeypots.

This new trend of hopping on the honeypot bandwagon,
it a bad idea, you really should have allot of time
and resources to keep track of these things.

What if somebody spams from it? you're the spammer, oh, ill block
outbound connections you say, but it's not that simple,
and since they already have access, they may
try and break out of that jail they are in.

Take for example, the irish honeynet project, total cowboys,
no useful information, they grep logs and create 'reports' that
look like they've been made by two year olds, a marketing scam.
