Is this person trying to attack Arch mirrors or just very confused?

2009/01/03 23:11:12 [9566] rsync on archlinux/(unstable|community|etc)/ from UNKNOWN (203.86.[...])

This client's been sending list-your-files requests on /archlinux/*/ every couple of minutes for 12 hours, causing a bit of server load. Anyone else seeing this?

I don't mirror arch files.... but can't you block the ip address?

Yeah -- I blocked it as soon as I found out about it.
