Hi everybody,
somebody is trying to break into one of out workstations.
The /var/log/secure contains lots of:
Failed password for invalid user $name from ::ffff:$IP port $port
ssh2
from different IPs, ports and usernames.
Since the tcp wrappers and the iptables should not allow ssh login from
any host outside our lab, I am wondering how he/she even got to the
login. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Susanne
