I was doing my usual run through of checking to make sure there weren't any |
| 2 |
unnecessary (or unauthorized) services/ports in use, and after running nmap |
| 3 |
I found that port 859/tcp was open. Now, I have iptables setup, so no |
| 4 |
inbound traffic is being allowed on that port. But I'm curious as to what |
| 5 |
could be listening on that port. I ran a netstat -pan, here's the relevant |
| 6 |
results: |

| 8 |
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:859 <http://127.0.0.1:859> 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - |

Several google searches didn't return much concerning that port, except a |
| 11 |
tool called Amanda (which I did have at one time but unmerged it). Any |
| 12 |
ideas? This server has a ssh, ftp, samba, apache, and mysql server on it. |
| 13 |
It's also setup as a router, so I'm a little paranoid about it's well-being. |
