Re: Closing port

He shouldn't assume that its the rpc11 port that caused his exploit.  It
could be sendmail, ssh or apache if he hasn't updated security fixes of
the past few months.  lpr and X11 shouldn't be run as open ports on an
Internet server.  I would rebuild the box and start over, migrate data,
triple check for exploits in the data migrated...
