Looks to be an automated self propagating script. Uses lpr or wuftp
vulnerabilities to get in, closes the holes, installs a root kit and then tries
to find a new site to hit. So unlike a windows worm that just needs an idiot
user to propagate it, this one requires that the admin didn't close those two
holes by either upgrading the daemons or, as I do, shutting them
off/uninstalling the unnecessary rpms.
