[cobalt-users] possible ftp attack??



I was looking at my log files and found this in /var/log/secure:

Oct 20 12:19:00 www proftpd[26204]: www.mydomain.com
(AMontpellier-201-1-6-88.abo.wanadoo.fr[80.11.171.88]) - USER anonymous: no
such user found from AMontpellier-201-1-6-88.abo.wanadoo.fr [80.11.171.88]
to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21

The next line reads proftpd[26205], then a line for 06, all the way to a
line for 15.

Is this some sort of attack?  If so, what are some possible next steps?

I found a second similar "attack".  If it is an attach, how can it be
reported?

I looked in the archives, but was not sure if I was searching under the
correct terms.  Any info would be helpful.

Is this the correct forum to be talking about this?
