I ran a simple script: for I in `grep DPT messages | awk '{print $10}' | cut -b5- | sort | uniq`; do echo $I; fwhois $I@whois.arin.net | sed -n "2p"; nslookup -sil $I | sed -n "3,99p"; done And discovered I had been probed for the SQL Server 7 Admin Port Vulnerability by several Phoenix business and corporations. That is to say, more Phoenix businesses than any other City in the world (except for Universities). Come on people - patch your boxes. Set up firewalls. Security 101. Hello?!? George
