My netstat doesn't accept a -tupan parameter. However, I have tried the other netstat options and I am not impressed. It appears (my version, anyway) not to list open ports until they are actually accessed. This is not much use for determining which ports are open *before* cracker accesses. I'm finding the 'scan' routine from BasicLinux much more useful. Cheers, Steven
