Hello all,

I am trying to track down the source of a large amount of IRC traffic from
one of my clients servers. It is a RedHat 7.2 machine. While I am logged on
using SSH, I am getting the following message every couple of minutes or so
and I was wondering if I could get some opinions as to what is going on. As
well, any insight as to how I can best track down the source of this IRC
traffic would also be appreciated.

I also have the following message repeatedly in my log file:

78>Dec 14 21:30:00 CROND[29221]: (root) CMD (/usr/lib/sa/sa1 1 1)

Any help would be very much appreciated. My experience when it comes to
tracking down intruders is not very deep so help is indeed needed.

Best,

Dave
