It has not been cracked that's 100% for sure. Never been hooked up to
anything. I just started building it the other day. I am following the book
Securing and Optimizing Linux RH edition.
I'm not sure what processes were running but will check when it happens
again. Right now I only have 22 process running and no servers installed at
all. Bare bones box.
Maybe I tweeked some of the settings too high. I'll play around and see what
I can figure out. I'll be in touch
Thanks,
Steve
