• Just opened ports -- and all the crap floods in

    From Sam Alexander@VERT/BLUEBOX to All on Sunday, July 06, 2025 17:07:05
    I just opened my ports for telnet and ssh from the internet to Sync through my router, and instantly it started getting hit with jokers running scripts trying to get in. Crazy how fast these things hit. I only have four nodes, but it's constantly tying up the first two. I guess this is the new normal? I have OpenSSH setup on a non standard port, but I bet it's only time before this gets found too.
