As of about 2:00 am cst 2/14/03 I have been receiving connection
attempts on my router to port 1756(caplast-lmd). Has any one seen this
too? Are there any know vulnerabilities on that port? I have been
getting a connection attempt about every 10-15 seconds. It's almost like
a DoS attack. Anyone have any thoughts.=20

Thanks
