[nsp-sec] Please look for big flows to 194.109.5.94

Hi all,

Overnight one of our router interfaces has been receiving a reasonable  
amount of packet love:

1.25 Gbps @ 3.64 Mpps

The destination is 194.109.5.94, the traffic is tcp syn or udp.  Most  
of the tcp is bound for 80 or 21.  Likely spoofed sources for most  
that we see.  The interface itself should probably not get much/any  
traffic from anyone, anywhere, other than the odd bit of udp or icmp  
in a traceroute.  We're mitigating on this end, but, if you see any  
reasonable flows in your network starting at Fri, Aug 28 2009,  
03:01:18 UTC, or 0200, or around that time, then you've definitely got  
bot.

Thank you for any assistance you may be able to provide, it's  
appreciated!!

p.s. For the curious, it's likely Romanian controlled, targeting  
Undernet's "Cservice" website, which we host -- their attacks on that  
directly weren't working, so they went one level higher in the trace.   
Ho hum.
