I installed nmap on my machine to improve security and remarked few mysterious ports enabled... Port Number Protocol Service 21 tcp ftp 25 tcp smtp 53 tcp domain 111 tcp sunrpc 515 tcp printer 1024 tcp unknown I know what is ftp, smtp, and domain, as I asked for them. But the sunrpc, printer and, most of all, unknown port are for me horrible mysteries that I _need_ to resolve... What is sunrpc? Is it a program listening for rpc? And what could unknown be??? Thanks. ############################### ## Au nom de l'etat, ## ## La force s'appelle droit. ## ## Au main de l'individu, ## ## Elle se nomme crime. ## ## ## ## -Berurier Noir ## ############################### Spidey Visitez http://www.JSP.UMontreal.CA/~beaupran To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
