-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 You could use the lsof tool to find out what daemon is running on that port. This is the best way to find out about port use, because using lists for default port uses will not tell you the actual use, but the usual use. An attacker placing a trojan on your port 119 for instance, does not make you an instant NNTP server. So use <lsof -i :587> to find out about this port, or, if you are using linux you can probably just type <netstat -anp>. maarten - ----- Original Message ----- From: "jayabaya" <friedo@karnusada.net> To: <security-discuss@linuxsecurity.com> Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002 7:38 AM Subject: submission..? > hi all... > > i scaned my computer using nmap. and i found a strange port named > submission (587). i don't really know what is this port stand for. > any suggest? > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---- > To unsubscribe email > security-discuss-request@linuxsecurity.com > with "unsubscribe" in the subject of the message. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 7.0.1 iQA/AwUBPHFfzJj3zCKq1vRDEQL8dwCgw6UO/Tb5suvNeUn0fOByKfOqQ8QAn0Gq ap7IHJHkiXYTs/N0XnQGtNaS =NLjj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe email security-discuss-request@linuxsecurity.com with "unsubscribe" in the subject of the message.
