It seems that panix, a New York internet service provider, is undergoing
a denial-of service attack.
The writeup for the masses is at
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/WPlate/1996-09/12/156L-091296-idx.html
The technical details are at
http://www.fc.net/phrack/files/p48/p48-14.html
The attack described in the phrack article is actually much more
sophisticated than that apparently used by the panix attacker.
The panix guy is apparently only using the denial-of-service
portion, rather than the full-on IP spoofing approach described
by daemon9, of which denial-of-service is one part.
