Every few days I see in the logwatch on my Centos-5.5 web-server
what seems like a rather feeble break-in attempt.
Eg today I see
---------------------------
403 Forbidden
/phpMyAdmin/scripts/setup.php: 2 Time(s)
/phpmyadmin/scripts/setup.php: 2 Time(s)
404 Not Found
/PMA2005/scripts/setup.php: 1 Time(s)
/TRAD_files/datestamp.js: 1 Time(s)
...
---------------------------
followed by dozens of similar lines.
As far as I can see, the IP of the person making the attempt
(if there was an attempt) is not given.
I'm not at all sure what if anything I should do about this.
In fact, I'm not clear how one should deal with logwatch entries
in general.
Is there any document giving advice on this?
