Hello all,

The only listening ports I'm curious about are 6000 which points to the X
Window System and 1024 which says (within /etc/services) it's a registered
port. Do these 2 listening ports possibly represent a venue for an 
intruder to compromise? Does anyone have a bit more info in regards to
these 2 open ports in question?  

thanxs much

- Bill
