I have inherited the lovely duty of admin'ing a production server running Etch. It's all very straightforward except for a phantom installed package that is spitting out snort-esque emails to root about perceived ongoing attacks. Unfortunately the only one it ever seems to complain about is the "TearDrop Attack" which it really isn't (it's just a strange network topology combined with some OS X users using Bonjour). I am constantly getting emails with the subject line

Log AttackLog(from: [ip])

Followed by the relevant lines from some mysterious log file that I can't find. Googling only shows that apparently whatever this package is is also used on various firewall and router devices/firmwares, as they also send out similar emails. I've dug through dpkg's installed package list and even gutted out some log notifications packages, but for the love of god, I can't seem to hit the right one. Does anyone know which package this is? Either so I can edit its detection ruleset or destroy it utterly...
