Hi, doing a quick search of port numbers and found that port 1900 is used for Universal Plug and Play SSDP (Simple Service Discovery Protocol). Perhaps there is an IPP printer set to use SSDP on your network?
I also found reference to the game Descent 3. I liked this comment about SSDP: "UPnP/SSDP is the technology that, in years to come, will allow our refrigerators and can openers to send e-mail to our automobiles and softball mits." As for trying to attach to the Gnatbox on this port- perhaps someone is playing Descent3 through your firewall? hope that helps a little, adrian On 4 Dec 2001 at 13:35, Dean Michael Dorman wrote: > --------------------- Attention ----------------------------- > A digest version of this list is now available. > Send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with the following message: > subscribe gb-users-digest your_email_address > Then unsubscribe from this list. > ------------------------------------------------------------- > GNAT Box User Forum http://www.gnatbox.com/cgi-bin/Ultimate.cgi > Send postings to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Access the list archives at: http://www.gnatbox.com/gb-users/ > ------------------------------------------------------------- > Sorry for a lame question like this but I'd like to know what is > significant about port 1900 on my gnatbox that apparently one system > keeps trying to atteach to it. 570Labs is my gnatbox. > I have gotten hundreds of these per day.
