Look at the local address column... if you see 0.0.0.0:110 or
MACHINE_IP:110 with a state of LISTEN, it means something is bound to port
110. You can see that I'm running an X server (port 6000), sendmail (port
25), a web server (port 80), lpd (port 515), sshd (port 22), etc. etc. ad
nauseum.
However, the only thing that should be binding to port 110 is a pop
server, so it's unlikely that you're accidentally running something else
that has it locked up.
You can also use the -p option on RH 6.1 (and maybe other distros...) to
identify what process is associated with each open socket.
