        Try Abacus Sentry.  Sorry, I don't have the URL handy.  It can
run commands or reconfigure your firewall in response to port scanning.

        Warnings:

        UDP can be spoofed so don't use it to trigger changes.

        While external commands can be run, retaliation is not advised.
As soon as some knows you have it set to counter attack mode, they come
in with a spoof attack and use your system to attack some innocent chump.
