Hi, Security_SuSErs :) ~ On my stand-alone desk-top 'puter, I installed "Port Sentry", and use it for a month now . . . Usually, the Log File shows nothing surprising. But, the last few days, I start to obeserve entries, like these :- __________________________________________________________ Oct 29 22:09:07 AIG kernel: Packet log: input DENY ppp0 PROTO=17 194.219.151.161:53 194.219.247.130:53 L=52 S=0x00 I=21648 F=0x0000 T=122 (#32) Oct 29 22:11:07 AIG kernel: Packet log: input DENY ppp0 PROTO=17 194.219.151.161:53 194.219.247.130:53 L=52 S=0x00 I=22928 F=0x0000 T=122 (#32) ____________________________________________________________ Any ideas, please, what this signifies . . . maybe my ISP is trying to plant some Cookies ? . . . or, what ? I have done a 'ping' to 194.219.151.161 , but it does not respond. I have done a 'dig' but it only gives the number, but no details. thanks a ton :) best wishes -- ____________ sent on Linux ____________ 100% Virus Free! ______________________________________________________________________________ Vous avez un site perso ? 2 millions de francs à gagner sur i(france) !
