Since re-subscribing to this list I have noticed an increase of un-authorized attempts to access my main Linux Server. It may be only a coincedence, however perhaps sharing a few of our log files could be useful to see if there is a pattern. Not everything which would overwhelm this already VERY busy List but basic things like: Nov: : connect from 149.156.100.100 to dump() : request from unauthorized host (That one is a denfinite No-No) Here's another(why I use proftpd) Nov 28 18:35:39 home in.proftpd refused connect from cm803646-a ftwrth1.tx.home.com(24.4.12.149) xtraceroute can track the footsteps of some of these attempts. routing through xxx.att.net seems popular. Anyone else seen these numbers Casual "sniffs" now and then are understandable curiosity on the part of some, however where does the "line get crossed"? If an acquaintance asked to stop by my house to look around both inside and outside I probably would be okay with that. If a stranger drives by my house and gives a casual glance thats one thing, but if they come up to the doors and windows to peak in and check the locks ...? William Bouterse Talkeetna
