REPOST Without HTML junk......sry bout the HTML postings.......maybe someone
has an answer to my ques?






Okay since I last wrote about messing up my server with a Chroot jail,
things have definately changed.

I installed RH9 and put it on an IBM Netvista 866 w/384Mg Ram /proc/kcore
shows 401477632 Oct 28 11:53 /proc/kcore..... Vs RH8.0 on a junker 450
w/320Mg Ram

All is running well but I do have one question.....maybe it was this way in
RH 8.0, I never noticed, but I'm pretty sure I would have noticed an open
errant port not assigned to anything.

netstat -taup shows a UDP port open by XINETD (BY the way, I"m not running
anything with xinetd).......I first noticed it because the CHKROOTKIT bawled
out an alert when the XINETD port was running on 1008  ... now it's on
923....has been on 979.....etc.....moves when I restart Xinetd.....is this
the result of running xinetd as xinetd -stayalive -pidfile
/var/run/xinetd.pid
thus keeping a UDP port open to support the PID?????
