Folks,
Since I posted my earlier message, I have begun to see this kind of
thing repeatedly. For the past 24 hours, my logs contain over 1000
lines of such packets! By that I mean, if I discard all lines that are
identical to one another except for the T= field, my file goes from
1177 denied packets to 47 denied packets. They are NOT all
port 111 packets--some are port 111, some are port 22, port 21,
port 53, and port 0 (PROTO 1). And they seem to have many different
source IP's as well. I have NEVER seen anything like this over the past
year. I changed from ES2B to D-floppy about two weeks ago. I have
rebooted since these started.
Is it possible that I have a bug somewhere and these log entries are all
from the same packet? Is it possible that someone on my cable
subnet is doing something bad to me?
