Aloha, 

        I have several entries in my router's /var/log/messages that look like 
this 
one.

Dec 11 20:12:50 router snort: [117:1:1] (spp_portscan2) Portscan detected 
from 66.8.222.33: 6 targets 9 ports in 20 seconds {TCP} 66.8.222.33:49582 -> 
12.246.156.221:6346

I'm curious why the log shows two IP addresses that aren't mine.  Is that 
because snort is seeing the traffic pass my external interface, or is 
something else up?  Obviously something is triggering snort, but I'm not sure 
it isn't something innocent like a IPC chat session or something like it.  
Any ideas???

Mahalos in advance,

Ben
