Hi, 99801 isn't a valid port number. TCP/UDP port numbers can only be numbers between 0 and 65535. This is because the TCP/UDP packet only reserves two bytes (16 bits) for the port number, and the largest number that can be specified in two bytes is 65536.
The scanner is mostlikely dropping the 17th bit and scanning 34265. Hope this helps. -Forrest On Sunday 14 July 2002 23:28, Darren Ward wrote: > Hi All, > > Anyone know why portscan would stay stuck on 99801 for ages? > > All I get after a while using verbose is the follwing over and over > again. > > e.g. > portscan|x.x.x.x|99801|100000| > > Darren
