I have shutdown syslog and looked at everything in /etc/xinetd.conf and /etc/xinetd.d/* and cannot find what is listening on TCP port 514.
What is binding to this port???
It is probably your syslog daemon. Try "netstat -nap | grep 514" or
[root@nms log]# grep 514 /etc/services
shell 514/tcp cmd # no passwords used
syslog 514/udp
[root@nms log]# netstat -nap | grep 514
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:514 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 29964/syslog-ng
udp 288 0 0.0.0.0:514 0.0.0.0:* 29964/syslog-ng
[root@nms log]# lsof -i | grep syslog
syslog-ng 29964 root 3u IPv4 1083907377 TCP *:shell (LISTEN)
