Short:
Is it possible to log that there is ftp server in our network on
_any_
port?

[...]
log tcp any any -> $HOME_NET !110       -> (msg:"FTP login USER";
content:"USER "; )
log tcp any any -> $HOME_NET !110       -> (msg:"FTP login PASS";
content:"PASS "; )
Should be able to dectect incoming ftp logins..
!110 to disregard al that nice email popping...

USER and PASS patterns may generate quite a lot of false events. Maybe some
more FTP specific pattern would be better like:

log tcp $HOME_NET any -> any any (msg:"FTP binary transfer";
content:"Opening BINARY mode data connection"; )
log tcp $HOME_NET any -> any any (msg:"FTP ascii transfer";
content:"Opening ASCII mode data connection"; )
etc...

The number of falses should be lower however the patterns may vary
depending on FTP server used.

Piotr
