Eeek!! Just fooling around with some software on my laptop, I found that my Gentoo desktop has an even dozen open inet ports with something listening to them, in addition to the ones I would expect (25, 80 and so on). They are all in the range 32768-60000.
Netstat agrees that they're open but does not disclose which process is listening. Does anybody know how to find this out? ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD
