[PLUG] What does this mean?

[Michael Smith]

Short of trying to access rpc yourself, not much.  I usually block out 
the port with ipchains/iptables because even if you're not running 
anything there, it gets probed alot.

If you're getting repeat probes this close together, then you might have 
a problem of some sort...or at least somebody knows you're running rpc.
