I had the same thing today.  Someone tried to connect to the portmap port.  

At Thu Nov 25 15:20:08 EST 1999 , [EMAIL PROTECTED] attempted to connect
to the  portmap deamon on unknown.

Any idea?  This IP address resolves to delaxiom.org. 
What can a person gain by connecting to this port?

I got this in my logs a few minutes ago:

Nov 24 20:30:30 xxxx.xxxx.xxxx portmap[11210]: connect from
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to dump():
request from unauthorized host

What might this have been?
