Re: Port 6588 Probes from SA

I'm scratching my head at this point...  any ideas?

Yeah, a couple of things...

1.  Were the probes dropped?  If so, why does it
matter?  From what you've been able to determine (from
what you presented in your post) the scans were, in
fact, broad-based, and you specifically, were NOT
targetted.

2.  Are you running anything on the port in question? 
If not, what about the probes got you upset enough to
post to a public list?  You didn't mention anything
about the probes consuming inordinate amounts of
bandwidth, so it's not clear what the problem/issue
is.

3.  Update your nmapNT to the one available from
Insecure.org.  The one you're using is old, out of
date, and buggy.
