`IBM DB2 for Windows (98/NT/2000) run 2 services : db2ccs.exe (listening on  
port 6790) and db2jds.exe (port 6789).   
I may be wrong but these services are used to access data remotely and to  
remotely manage the database.  
  
Both can be crashed remotely: just telnet on their port, send one byte and  
then close the connexion, that's all.  
  
IBM is aware of that. They reproduced the problem and say that a patch will  
be availlable in july (so this month) for version 7 and above.
