Dear Experts: When I do "nmap" to localhost, I get the following response:
Starting nmap 3.81 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2005-08-04 20:10 BDT Interesting ports on localhost (127.0.0.1): (The 1653 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) PORT STATE SERVICE 37/tcp open time 80/tcp open http 111/tcp open rpcbind 113/tcp open auth 139/tcp open netbios-ssn 445/tcp open microsoft-ds 621/tcp open unknown 685/tcp open unknown 711/tcp open unknown 725/tcp open unknown A trial and error method shows that when I run NIS with rc.nfsd, rc.yp, on this machine, I get these "unknown" tcp ports open. I was wondering, why they are "unknown" and/or is there a way to stop them (if they are vulnerable). Other services I run includes: SAMBA, httpd, SSHD. My OS is Slackware 10.1 Thanks. -- Enayetur RAHEEM To unsubscribe send a blank mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
