I get the same thing - I use PortSentry, which somehow attracts a lot of hits on that port, but they are false positives. I read somewhere that PortSentry makes it appear to portscanners as if NetBus is installed on your computer, so the idiots keep pinging me all day because they mistakenly think my computer is an easy target (it's not). It leads them forever to a dead end even though the lamers still go on thinking in their thick heads that they've made some "real live hacker" progress. It was annoying to me, even alarming at first, but no real problem.. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
