hello, upon runnign portscan on my computer from a nonlocal host, I get the following:
9 -> discard 13 -> daytime 21 -> ftp 22 -> ssh 23 -> telnet 25 -> smtp 37 -> time 79 -> finger 80 -> www 110 -> pop-3 111 -> sunrpc 113 -> auth as I use pretty much all of the "standard" daemons, I don't know what 'discard', 'daytime', 'time', 'sunrpc', and 'auth' are....if anyone can suggest ways for turning these off, I'd appreciate it (inetd.conf doesn't do have anything that I've not checked as far as I know). I especially need help with sunrpc, as it's nowhere to be found in rc*... also, can somone give me a straight answer on how to restart initd? I've heard 'kill -HUP inetd', but it gives me an error of not being able to find it...I just kill it by pid, nad restart it manually (type 'inetd'). thanks!!!! -lev //sig: //Social graces are the packet headers of everyday life
