I wonder, would he really send you the patch if you emailed him for it?
Anyone know? I know almost nothing about hacking/hackers/etc...

Someone hacked into my little Linux gateway box. He defaced index.html and
saved the old one as old.html
That he appears as root/ftp, is that an indication how he got in?
 
I had anon. ftp running, using the default one RH 6.2 ships with (wu-2.6.0).
 
I suppose I have to completely re-setup that box, I just would like to know
what hole to close there.
 
Any ideas?
 
If anybody wants to see the deface before I fix by box:
