Ok,
so I get the point that these 192.168.x.x addresses according to -
> From: "Steve Costaras" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
> Here's verbatim from RFC 1918:
are a little incorrect. But there is no way of tracing 'traceroute' these
addresses. So how does anyone expect to get a response to a command from a
192.168.x.x address across the internet?
Interestingly, even though the UDP message from 192.168.5.192 is stopped by
the firewall (RULE is DENY) this system attempts to respond with an ICMP/3
back to 192.168.5.192 (in this case) but is blocked by the fw-out rules
(and logged)!!
Neat huh.
To date I have had 2740 hits - admittedly over a period of a few weeks.
Regards,
Bruce.
