I'm not certain I wasn't seeing those beforehand, no. I suppose I jumped
to conclusions a bit. Should I be concerned about these "incomplete
startup packet" errors? It's unlikely that its a portscan, since the db
server is invisible to the outside world. How can I go about tracking
down the source of these? My db clients are JDBC connections from web
applications.
