Ports being shown as open does not mean that your machine is listening, more like the firewall has some holes in it. If the firewall is not configured/running on your server itself, then you may be alright. Can you actually connect to your server using those ports? Have you tried telnet, or nc -v -z <your_host_name> <port> to see if they are open? If the above as well as lsof show nothing, can you nmap your machine from within the LAN that it is hosted in? HTH. -- Regards, Mick
