RE: [cobalt-security] Is this coincidence or what - FTP Scans



proftpd[26249]: xxx.xx.xx.x(ALille-201-2-2-141.abo.wanadoo.fr[193.252.194.141]) - FTP session opened.

proftpd[26249]: xxx.xx.xx.x(ALille-201-2-2-141.abo.wanadoo.fr[193.252.194.141]) - FTP session closed.

I get hit from wanadoo as well. When the logs say FTP session opened and then closed right after it, are they making a connection in? I have annonymous FTP turn off...

Any words of advice?

This is the same IP and Network that scans my raq4r on a daily basis.
Perhaps they like scanning and attempting ftp login on Aussies and
Kiwi's.

I have not had any malicious damage from them (that I can see)

The two most common I see are dip.t-dialin.net and abo.wanadoo.fr
I get some of the same ips and some different.  But them over and over.
