This works as well. 6 years ago we set up faked telnet services, which
writed out login/password and reported 'no more processes', run a few faked
telnet sessions (so that sniffers could record them) and then tracked an
attempts to login. 'I am ice cream man' is a pretty good idea.
Of course, if anyone will do it., Internet became some kind of 'Made man
house' (it is already, isn't it?)
