Hi there.
I noticed a little program called tcplogd, shipped with Debian linux,
which logs, using syslogd facilities, any tcp (SYN) connection attempt
to your host.
Here is a modified version. It is now able to detect FTPbounce attacks,
FIN packet based scan (like Uriel's and Xmas tree scan) as well as Null
flag scan (see nmap 2.01 documentation for details).
Compiles under Linux 2.0/2.1 with libc5 or glibc2.
a much more advanced (and portable) logger will follow soon.
hope you will find this useful. greetings.

/* tcplogd.c v 2.1 (20th dic. 1998) for linux
by phroid (phroid@cyberdude.com)
(a simple hack of Mike Edulla's tcplogger)
the difference are:
initial release:
0 - compiles on libc5 AND glibc2 system.
1 - stripped ident support (whould reveal the logger IMHO!)
2 - added tcp FIN packet logging, they are used in many attacks
since 2.1:
removed LOG_ALL_FIN option, not useful anymore
3 - added FIN+URG+PUSH packet logging ("Xmas tree scan" attack)
4 - added logging of tcp packets w/o any flag set ("Null scan" attack)
write me if you like this or if you are interested in IPdump and IPlogd
IPdump is a single packets DETAILED dumper for advanced diagnostic use
IPlogd would be the definitive tcp/ip log daemon, supporting tcp, udp, icmp,
and even raw data using user-defined matching parameters.
