Andy,
Thanks for your reply. If they don't worry you then I certainly won't
worry about them
I have been converting the ipv6 addresses associated with it to ipv4's and
running them through checks to see if they are linked to any known rogues.
Problem is they are btinternet addresses so could be anyone of about a few
million in UK. But the addresses linked to the httpd hack attempts were
Tiscali so the two groups of incidents are probably not related. Then I
realised that I hadn't blocked ipv6 on that vps so have set up a ip6tables
rule dropping all connections, should be the end of it. It probably
explains why I have not noticed such things on my other vps, as ipv6 has
been blocked on there from when I first took it on
