Hi list,
Hi Timo,
I have a few questions about the detection of port scanning. In the IX 5/May 2000 magazin (German), the author writes that he uses nmap to scan a well used web site.
First I want to know if the victim can easily detect the scan and how to prevent such scans.
Yes the victim can detect such scans(see below).
Does SuSE 6.x contain any tools to do that ?
Yes, the package scanlogd i guess it's in series "sec".
PS: I ask me, if it is legal to do portscans on any sites ?
Just ask your self, what would you think if somebody scans your host(s)/net(s). So better don't do such things. M Werner
