i was wondering about the same some time ago and turned off everything i do not actually need. everything but a service called 'SUN Remote Procedure Call' running on tcp 111. i'm still curious to know what this is for, and how i could maybe turn it off, if i don't have use for it. can someone help? i'm using 4.3-RELEASE tnx. j. -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG]Im Auftrag von Agemo Noraj Gesendet: Dienstag, 7.

Put a '#' in front, and then from the command line, killall -HUP inetd To further complicate the issues, if you want the service available but only to certain hosts, from the command line man hosts.allow or man hosts.deny If you want to have even more control over incoming/outgoing connections, from the command line, man ipfw or man ipf If your wondering what ports you have open on your box. From the command line, netstat -an | grep LISTEN If your wondering what services those ports are, from the command line, grep <port number> /etc/services Agemo Noraj -_-_-_-_-_ " What an excellent day for an exorcism.
