I have telnet and FTP service turned up on this workstation.
It is behind a firewall with Port Forwarding and secured with
wrappers/chains so ONLY my clients (Who have all static IP's)
can get in. All things are set up VERY secure and in 10 years
on various customer's servers this has yet to be hacked.
There are other settings , but I am not gonna give my secrets away.

Anyway, I DO monitor log's and Have been getting a LOT
(hundreds) of hits of IP's trying to get in (with no luck) over the
past few days. Mostly telnet then fall back to ftp.

All the dig/nslookup return that the IP Block belongs to
Russia and Croatia.

Whaddya think? Russian Mafia trying to hack my system?
