Hey Marc
1st to output of netstat: linux2:/var/log # netstat -ltnp Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 737/httpd tcp 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN 720/sshd linux2:/var/log #
I think the port is being announced as closed because Port 113/TCP is being REJECTED instead of denied to accelerate access to services that do an ident-lookup (ftp for example). If it would be denied, the server would wait for a loong long timeout. You can check this with "iptables -nL -v|grep 113" Bjoern -- "The number of Unix installations has grown to ten, with more expected" [ The Unix programmers manual, 1972 ]
