i use samba on my freebsd server to share files , i dont use any active directory connectivity still the port "445/tcp open microsoft-ds" is open , i read is some where that this port should be close as it is dangerous to the server , is this true ?
Hi Faisal,
Are you running the newest Samba? I think this is relatively new because I run fbsd 4.8 and rh 9, both have samba but fbsd is running the new 3.0.10 and rh is running an older 2.x version. Here are my (persistent) connections on my win xp gateway:
System:4 TCP delliver:3033 penguin:netbios-ssn ESTABLISHED
System:4 TCP delliver:3034 swamisalami:microsoft-ds ESTABLISHED
Notice that the connection is to netbios-ssn on the rh box running samba 2.x, but to microsoft-ds which afaik is port 445 for the fbsd box running samba 3.0.10. TBH I don't know which port is being kept open for rh, so maybe this is of no help at all.
Well it helps me a little to repeat the bit that I do know. :)
