The network I monitor was getting scanned by the below IP.  It stopped now
though :)

If it's a network you monitor, meaning you have direct responsibility for,
wouldn't you already know if it's a honeypot?
 
  sounds fishy that you have to ask....

So...one of the networks I monitor has this ip:

66.139.73.183

Doing netbios scans on it.  A cursory inspection shows it as a win2003
box...that¹s WIDE open.  Could this be a honeypot that¹s been compromised?

Curious
