I am a little concerned about XFree86+wdm keeping a bunch of processes listening on port 32768. (wdm is the windowmaker xdm replacement.) According to lsof -i TCP, there are a number of processes listening on the port. When using X, I accept the obvious port 6000 being open for inbound connections and I believe XFree is secure enough with it (I only allow local logged-in user from localhost to contact to my X server) but what is this wdm doing listening on 32768? nmap says it's an unknown port and /etc/services does not recognise it. IANA seems to recognise the port as filenet-tms 32768/tcp Filenet TMS filenet-tms 32768/udp Filenet TMS but I have no idea what "Filenet TMS" is. I am a little at a loss with this. Should I trash wdm or what? It's a little sad thing to do since it allows me to choose a window manager at login time, something xdm does not do (at least didn't last time I checked). For what it's worth, my wdm is Version: 1.20-5, from unstable. The newest seems to be 1.20-10, but I am in a habit of upgrading unstable stuff only if there is a problem/security issue. (Because things sometimes break, like alsa-utils was broken last week.)
