Actually my collegue at Cisco Venkat Pothamsetty did most of the grunt
work on http://scadahoneynet.sourceforge.net/

And Dale and Landon were intimately involved in
http://www.scadahoneynet.com/ which was a 2nd pass at the concept...

Of course the whole problem with SCADA honeynets on public networks
(at least on the data I saw) is that there were no interesting
attacks.
