[H-GEN] Security issues....

[Michael Anthon]

Looks like someone was "rattling my doorknobs" over the weekend.  Good
thing I put a little effort in lately to securing things a bit better.
Given that I am still not 100% sure that everything is as good as it can
be (actually, I'm sure it's NOT... I think I need to update a couple of
packages still)  I thought that I would post a bit of my log in the hope
that the gurus might be to give me some advice.

The other thing is... should I do anything about this?  For example. a
quick mail message to abuse at psi.net or something.
