Just in case you haven't already, set up a whitelist. I've got a server running the same way, and I regularly get people trying to connect. I've also set up the firewall and blocked known scanners, but still get a few attempts.
I'm not exactly sure how they set up the back end. We are all home labbers though and I haven't seen any unknown players on. One of our guys is on through most of his work day and would have noticed too.
I'll mention it for sure though, just might be a pain if one of our IPs changes and they may not go for it. Thanks for the suggestion!
You set the whitelist in Minecraft, and it uses your ID. I can't remember exactly what Minecraft calls it, your player ID maybe. It doesn't matter where you connect from then, as long as you're logged in. I think it works the same way with pirated accounts too, but I haven't got any here to check.
For the firewall, I've just been checking through the Minecraft log every now and then and banning the obvious bots and scanners, so that shouldn't affect you either :)
Oh nice, he may have already set it with account whitelist them, I'll have to ask.
