Hi,

Obviously you are running portsentry. Are you running a news
server? If not then why don't you block that port with your
firewall?  I receive regularly people attempting to connect to
that port and ports: 20, 21, 22 ,23 , 53 , 515. Since I do not run
a server these are all shut and denied through a firewall. 

Cheers,

Dominic.
