Folks, Been experimenting a bit with nc. As such, I've been seeing how it connects from system to system. To that end, I started an Apache server on my laptop (on Hardy Heron). After a bit, I ran the following command to see if the nc from another system would show up.
netstat -atun Well, it didn't, but I soon got a bunch of entries similar to tcp 0 0 10.168.0.111:44535 xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa:80 ESTABLISHED Where xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa are public addresses from places like FL and MA. It's not like I have anything but the standard "It works" page on that Apache server. And I have a pretty standard (though old) firewall on the router, with port forwarding set up (for the most part) to some non-existent systems on my local private IP net. My laptop is not one of them. So there's a weakness somewhere. I don't have MS running anywhere (at the moment) Any suggestions on where I should look?
