Riyadhon What the Chinese deploy into your Tomcat server if you don't secure it

You're right about that, Malcolm. Then again that was just one of several IP addresses tracking to China.

Nevertheless I should have replaced "Chinese" with "hackers".

Riyadhon What the Chinese deploy into your Tomcat server if you don't secure it

Unfortunately the Tomcat log files don't contain any other information. I still have to check and see what exactly gets logged when the script is used. As of now I don't see any other calls logged, so my hope is that the timeouts prevented worse from happening.

Riyadhon Ask HN: How many vacations do you take a year?

Germany, Freelance Java/JEE Developer

Here for permanent positions you get 24+ days off but as a freelancer I obviously don't get any vacation unless I take a few days off myself.

- Usually every 1.5 years ~10-14 days: traveling in Europe - Every 3-4 years ~20 days: traveling outside of Europe - In addition to that I take a Friday off every ~2 months for a long weekend with the family, visiting places in Germany

I do my side projects at night and on the weekends, if the family allows me to. I outsource A LOT, so I think I actually get a decent amount of work done.

In Germany we have lots of official holidays so we get an extra day off here and there. The official "calculation" is ~220 working days per year (for permanent positions).
