During the last 3 hours a user at power.bcs.ee has once every two seconds=20
tried to access my FTP-server with the username "hertz" and no password.=20
Since we dont have a user "hertz" every attempt is rejected. The rejections=
=20
show up in the security log and is filling it quickly though.
The FTP-server is now rejecting all FTP-calls from bcs.ee
Has anyone on this list experienced something similar before, maybe even=20
from the same site ???
