Hi Lester,
Yes i am blocking via iptables those ip's . Is there any permanent solution
there.
You are missing the point ... these guys will be moving around weekly so what
worked last week will be different next week. It's just an irritation we live
with rather than something there will ever be a permanent solution for :(
Best we can do is just irritate them back by feeding useless material so they
get fed up trying.

What do you think needs fixing?
We all get hackers trying to find out what software we are running and I
regularly see reams of entries trying every combination of MySQL possible
web software URL's ... which makes me chuckle since I never run it on
production machines. In the past I used to spend time blocking persistent
hackers using the same IP address a lot, but nowadays I've resorted to
simply forwarding a few key URL's back to Google. Anything with mysql in the
URL returns a google lookup of the IP address for instance :) But I've even
got that switched off at the moment and am not seeing much 'suspect'
traffic.
