hi, these ports seem to be open by default on a standard sarge setup
PORT STATE SERVICE 9/tcp open discard 13/tcp open daytime 21/tcp open ftp 22/tcp open ssh 25/tcp open smtp 37/tcp open time 80/tcp open http 110/tcp open pop3 111/tcp open rpcbind 143/tcp open imap 443/tcp open https 1720/tcp filtered H.323/Q.931 the server will just be serving email and websites so can these services be turned off? PORT STATE SERVICE 9/tcp open discard 13/tcp open daytime 37/tcp open time 111/tcp open rpcbind i presume they are mostly from inetd the service: 443/tcp open https is used to protect the webmail service. it is meant to stop the email passwords from being sniffed. what is 1720/tcp filtered H.323/Q.931 ? and how do i turn it off if it is uneccessary. thanks, kev -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
