Run "netstat -l" and/or check /etc/inetd.conf and find out what other
services/daemons are running on the box.  If it's just acting as a syslog,
I'd only have tcp/22 open for sshd and syslogd running and everything else
killed.  Just to venture a guess, but it probably has SaMBa running, which
will include smbd and nmbd making the box act as an NT browse-master.
