Eeek!!
Just fooling around with some software on my laptop, I found that my Gentoo
desktop has an even dozen open inet ports with something listening to them,
in addition to the ones I would expect (25, 80 and so on).
They are all in the range 32768-6.
Netstat agrees that they're open but does not disclose which process is
listening.
Does anybody know how to find this out?
I should add that they all disappear when I log off, and are not seen when I
log in as root, nor when I log in remotely. These could
(I hope so) be things that KDE is starting, but it seems like an awful lot
of listening ports. I have about 125 processes just for starting KDE, few
of which I understand, so I could use some help narrowing this down.
