You should check to make sure it wasn't broken into while you weren't
looking - it certainly wouldn't hurt.

Easiest way to block 600x is to use ipchains to dissalow access to the
range 6000:6010 from anyone but 129.93.11.112 and 127.0.0.1.

You need to upgrade your ethernet card and hub - I'm only getting

PS: I'm getting such a high speed only because Creighton has a DS-3 (or
