Greetings all:

Reviewing logs for my FW-1 (3.0b patch 3068 on NT4 SP4), I saw several
dropped entries for a service that the log was calling "sunrpc." Not being
familiar with the service, I wanted to look up what port that actually was
(and also to send off the scan detection notification email) but I was
surprised that there was no such service defined in my FW system.

I took a quick look around phoneboy's site, didn't see anything that relates
to this, so I'd appreciate any answers the list members might have for the
two following questions:

1) How does the designation get into the log, if the service isn't defined
in my firewall and are there others that might crop up in a similar manner?

2) Would someone tell me what port this service is using, or point me to a
website that will let me search for port numbers by service name, since most
of the online resources order the list by port number?

Thanks in advance,
