That depends on the severity of the "attack"
Sometimes, an "all port scan" might be nothing more than a string of "late"
packets.
Examine the IP...log for the time (GMT, remember) when the alert is thrown.
I believe you'll find that most "alerts" are spurious.

it seems my isa server is doing its job detecting and blocking these scans,
but now what?  Is there someway I can let this address know we are on to
him.  Is there a watch dog service I could report it to.  Any suggestions on
what I can do beyond discarding the attack?

Thanx in advance
