[cobalt-security] UDP Scans



Hi
I know I asked this the other day but I've still no answer here or from any
other source.
When I switch on Portsentry it reports 100s of scans on UDP from what I
assume are all the other boxes on the farm my box is on. ie:

222.222.222.30
222.222.222.45
222.222.222.199
222.222.222.169
222.222.222.178
222.222.222.100

In other words they have the same IP address as me except the last number.
The go on scanning, and portsentry goes on banning them all. On and on and
on until the log files are enormous.
What is going on? is this normal or have I set it up wrong?
The TCP part of portsentry seems to work OK picking up scans on 111 from
Korea etc. but the UDP one just goes nuts...100's of repeated attempts all
from similar address.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Simon
