I know this isn't a hardware problem, but I figured someone on opstaff
might be able to check into this.
A user in OLC (wools) reports that he has gotten several faked
zephyrgrams from "whatevor" at oral.mit.edu (which I don't think is one
of our machines). I don't know whether he meant that the username on
the message was "whatevor" or whether that just meant he didn't know
what the name was, or there was no name...
Anyway, the user also said that he knows that several other people have
gotten similar messages, so if there is some way of tracing fake zgrams,
and we can find out who the person is and get them to stop, it would be
nice...
Other info, if it helps... this was about 5:30pm on Thu, May 8.
Thanks,
-Chris.
