RE: ftp directory scan

["Carey, Steve T ISD" <steve.carey () redstone army mil>]

It is an automated scan by a someone looking for anonymous FTP servers with
read/write privileges enabled.  If they find one they will use it as a warez
site until found by the SA.

ftp or some worm ( look at nine line of log).
