While certainly not of the kind you're looking for, one of our SQL servers has been acting odd lately. But that's what we get for trying to put one on a vmware server rather than physical gear. Doh! I was pretty interested in that port 5901 scanning that made some news in the past 48 hours since it may have contribute to a near-worldwide traffic increase. Made me think back to RealVNC's issue last year...like maybe something in a popular Linux distro was allowing bypass or root (wouldn't be surprising considering how many of us us Ubuntu now and how quickly it has converted people...). Happy 4th! Eh, funny you mention odd SQL behavior. While certainly not of the kind you’re looking for, one of our SQL servers has been acting odd lately.
