/etc/services - is used to map ports and service-names to protocols, such as - telnet 23/tcp The name "telnet" is then referenced on /etc/inetd.conf which would then map these "service-names" to corresponding server that would get spawned(binary executable). If you are on a centos, check for xine

I believe Centos uses /etc/sysconfig/iptables /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config and scripts in /usr/share/system-config-securitylevel/ for the GUI to set open ports. The file that matters is /etc/sysconfig/iptables it generally looks like this (I grabbed this from a centos5.5 box): # Firewall confi
