Kim:
Good point. If there was a machine on the LAN that was
trying to ping (or otherwise connect with) 0.0.0.0, it could
generate this sort of response. But...hmmm...would the destination
unreachable reply be said to come *from* 0.0.0.0? I would think
it would be from my ISP's routers. Or, possibly, these ICMP
messages always come from a broadcast address, where the source
IP is the address that's unreachable (eg, 80.135.217.223). I
should Google for how these ICMP messages are put together, and
update fwlog.pl accordingly.

www.iana.org is your friend ;

Well, according to http://www.iana.org/assignments/protocol-numbers,
protocol 1 is icmp.

Here: http://www.iana.org/assignments/icmp-parameters we see that icmp
type 3 is ``Destination Unreachable ... [RFC792]''.

Which firewall are you using?

When you say, ``They are coming from everywhere ...'', what do you
mean?  The source in all that you've posted is 0.0.0.0, whereas the
destination varies.

Tell us what is your ip address/network numbers, and we may better
analyze your situation.

What do you think?

Michael,
This may be temporary. I'll contact Scott for clarification of the
situation. Thanks for letting me know this resource is unavailable at
this time.

I took a quick look and yes, I do believe the loss is temporary. Someone 
revised this host's (apache) srm.conf a few weeks ago and changed the 
directory that the cgi-bin ScriptAlias handler points to. I imagine the 
intent was to make a new feature work (there is stuff in the new 
directory), but a side effect was to disable  the fwlog.pl service (and 
perhaps other services as well).

I only have user-level access to this host, so I can't fix the problem. 
Anyway, I wouldn't want to, since in doing so I might break something else. 
But once Scott returns from vacation (sometime this coming week), he should 
be able to restore the service in a few minutes. Until then, folks will 
need to be patient.

Oh -- I guess I read it backwardsthat's why I needed the firewall 
tool!  ;-)

I guess I should've said they are coming from I don't know where and 
going to everywhere (ie there are tons of different addresses).  I'm 
using straight Eigerstein no firewall addins, and my IP is dhcp from the 
ISP, but begins in 66.235.3.x cause it changes, and my mask is 255.255.252.0

thanks for your help.
