Hi, thanks Sven & Martin, using lsof -i tcp:32770 and netstat -anpt | grep 32770 i found out that kxmlrpcd binds to port 32770. Knowing the actual name of the process I found what I was looking for: http://bugs.kde.org/db/24/24992-b.html Since kxmlrpcd accepts connections from anywhere, some believe this to be a potential security hole, here are two solutions proposed by one of the posters on the site mentioned above: 1. Delete the line X-KDE-Init=xmlrpcd from /usr/share/services/kxmlrpcd.desktop 2. Create the file /usr/share/config/kxmlrpcdrc (if not already there) and add the lines [General] StartServer=false I tried umber one and it worked for me.
