yeah

the reason i didn't think that portsentry would be causing this type of beh=
avioris that i'm also running it on a couple of standalone workstations tha=
t i have firewalled with ipfilter, and when i nmap these machines, it doesn=
't show a variety of ports being open due to portsentry listening on them. =
=20
i'm not sure why nmap would show these ports that portsentry's listening on=
 being open when behind a ipf/ipnat configuration...

thanks
redmond
