I have a pretty robust ipchains firewall set up via TrinityOS.  I am seeing
many rejection messages on my external interface for strange ports.  For
example,

Dec 20 00:12:10 firewall kernel: Packet log: input REJECT eth1 PROTO=6
24.190.9.93:1169 24.191.246.159:27374 L=48 S=0x00 I=62197 F=0x4000 T=123 SYN
(#77) 

What is port 1169 and why is it probing my port 27374?  Should I be concerned
about this kind of crap?  Should I stop logging it?
