Package: nagios-statd
Version: 3.12-1

Today I was trying to remember what port nagios-statd runs on, so I ran

  grep nagios /etc/services

but if found nothing. So I looked in the nagios-statd manpage and found 
that is was 1040. So I did

  grep 1040 /etc/services

which also found nothing. So I thought maybe I'd file a bug on netbase to 
ask for it to be added (since it's not in the latest version). But before I 
did I thought I'd see if it was reserved upstream

  http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers

well it's already listed as

  netarx          1040/tcp   Netarx Netcare
  netarx          1040/udp   Netarx Netcare

I don't know if nagios-statd should move or not, but it's sort of annoying 
it's not listed in /etc/services. I don't know what netarx is, I don't know 
if it's providing it's own service or if it's also use nagios-statd and 
they just claimed it for themselves.
