I also want alert message
1. if some one from a remote machine tries to connect my computer

Someone would have to write an app to tie into the various notification
systems, but the ULOG target of iptables should allow this. Of course, it
might be thousands of attempts a day for a computer with a publicly routable
IP.

2. if some one from a remote machine tries to run a port scanner on
my ip

That's harder to detect, but you'd already notice it from the hundreds or
thousands of alerts triggered by #1.
