<P>Dusty, Brian and Warren,</P>
<P> Thanks for your help. The answer to Warren's question is that I am
seeing a few more port scans on port 53 from the far flung regions of
the world than I want to see. These appear to be coming from places
like Kazakhstan, Beijing, Chekoslovakia etc. Not places where a note
to a sysadmin is likely to have too much effect. So far, my firewall
and portsentry have done well, but I thought I'd try and tighten things
down a bit just in case. I didn't want to "break" anything
that already works in the process though, so I came to the best answer
place I could find, and you guys helped tremendously.
</P>
<P> Right now, I just want to tighten up my box a bit, but these
questions are going to help me with my router in the near future, so
hopefully my home LAN that I am building stay just that -- mine ;-))</P>
<P> I'll tinker around a bit over the next few days and let you guys
know how it worked out.
