Please, do not write to me directly, but through the list.

Oh, I got it now. But I'm sorry, I do not know the answer on Your
question. :o)

If I had a newly installed system - I would search for the
answer in /etc/network dir. OR iptables package files.

Wow. Interesting. It seems that the software that changes Your iptables
rules awaits that the machine will serve domain and boot requests. May
You will check who listens (processes and hence exetubales/packages if
any) on those ports?
