Well he is running a Unix so he is probably better off than someone running notorious Windows. Nevertheless, listening to a port that supports a function you do not need has no benefit and a (probably small) potential risk. The CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) is only useful if he is using CUPS printing. Most people don't. The Netadmin port I don't know about. I know my Mac is not listening to that port. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
