Hello All,

I was reviewing my logs and noticed some problems with my HTTP rules with FWTK
and HTTP-GW -- someone was able to get to the proxy who wasn't supposed to.  I
have found the typo in my rules table, but have some questions now that I have
reviewed my logs.  I have been getting pretty regular hits from
sparc.berkeley.edu and puck.berkeley.edu on HTTP only (there is not a HTTP
server inside the firewall.....only outside the firewall). The odd thing is
that the duration and bytes-in values seem high (on one of the entries I have
24008 bytes in for a duration of 93).  Am I dealing with someone trying to
interactivily hack thru my firewall via HTTP?  Could I have been comprimised
via FTP or Telnet from the HTTP-GW Proxy?  How can I get more info from the
http-gw process?

Here's the syslog entries (they are probably out of date/time order)
