Hi,

Does anyone know how I might monitor shorewall logs for rejects on
hosts/ports that don't exist? I think it might be called "doorknob
rattling"?

I have a ton of entries like this:

[  299.759915] Shorewall:ext2dmz:REJECT:IN=eth0 OUT=eth1
MAC=00:25:90:a5:e7:1f:00:23:9c:98:fb:6a:08:00 SRC=185.130.5.228
DST=66.104.111.105 LEN=75 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=240 ID=54321
PROTO=UDP SPT=49744 DPT=53 LEN=55

That IP doesn't exist. I can't think of any reason a legitimate
attempt would be made to communicate with that address, but it's
probably not a good idea to block it on its first attempt. This
appears to be the perfect case for using fail2ban, but I hoped someone
had some input on how to do this, and if it was a good idea?

Thanks,
Alex
