Hi All, I have recently installed SuSe 7.2 and scanning my computer with nmap I get the following:

Starting nmap V. 2.53 by fyodor@insecure.org ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) Interesting ports on name-changed.protect.inoccent.ac.uk (xxx.xx.x.xx): (The 1519 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed) Port State Service 22/tcp open ssh 113/tcp open auth 6000/tcp open X11 32770/tcp open sometimes-rpc3

I do not ever remember authorising 'sometimes-prc3' on port 32770. I do not run NFS or NIS so I am not sure why it is necessary. My question is , is it a big security hole? And how can I shut it/ prevent it from starting up ( i don't see it in inetd.conf nor rc.conf)?
