Performing strobe or nmap on my system, I get, e.g., the following list:
79/tcp open finger
119/tcp open nntp
143/tcp open imap2
540/tcp open uucp
6667/tcp open irc
12345/tcp open NetBus
12346/tcp open NetBus
31337/tcp open Elite
However, lsof -i tcp:79 yields nothing. Similarly with the others.
In addition, there should be no irc running, finger is commented from the
inetd.conf, and so on.
Why do these ports respond to strobe or nmap? Which process controlls them?
