Hi, a couple days ago I decided to test GNOME2, because I have one stand-alone machine with FreeBSD 8.2 for testing various things. Lite* version was installed from the 8 Stable branch. My questions is: A) do I need enable avahi daemon to properly run GNOME2? The same question goes for avahi mDNS daemon B) it is normal that some services (?) are listening on various ports? Couple examples (skip some info such as FD, PID etc.); # sockstat -46 ian gnome-sess tcp6 *:30226 *:* ===> ** ian gnome-sess tcp4 *:25308 *:* avahi avahi-daem udp4 *:5353 *:* avahi avahi-daem udp4 *:31702 *:* # sockstat -4l ian gnome-sess tcp4 *:25308 *:* avahi avahi-daem udp4 *:5353 *:* avahi avahi-daem udp4 *:31702 *:* # netstat -an |grep LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.44164 *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 *.56629 *.* LISTEN It is normal behaviour? If I can close/disable these ports, how do this? Best regards! Ian. _____________ * gnome2-lite-2.32.1 ** - I do not use IPv6. It is normal (tcp6)?
