If you are running Windows, it is most likely a dynamic-RPC port.
Typically, Windows systems have one or two ports open that are in the range
of 1024 - 1040. RPC connections are initially made at port 135, and then
are remapped dynamically to a port within 1024 - 1040 range, *typically*.
I make no illusions that it is definitely a dynamic-RPC connection. For
Windows, use NETSTAT (located in %systemroot%\system32) to determine if the
port is mapped to "localhost". If it is, then you can be pretty sure that
it is dynamic-RPC. I currently have both 1026 and 1027 on mine. It is
almost always a different set of ports every time I boot my system
Search MS's TechNet <http://www.microsoft.com/technet> for info on MS's
implementation of RPC.
