Hi,

Ok, first time I've seen this...

My last run this morning was clean.

I run courier-imap (working on replacing with dovecot) with couriertls,
and I just tried adding the --nocolor option and reran my cronjob, and
got a Warning about a possible rootkit:

Warning: Network TCP port 2006 is being used by /usr/sbin/couriertls.
Possible rootkit: CB Rootkit or w00tkit Rootkit SSH server

Netstat -tulnap shows a whole bunch of similar connections open, so I
think this is normal? Question then is why does it think this one is a
rootkit?

Here is a small sample from the netstat output (including the suspect
process):

tcp6       0      0 192.168.1.252:993       192.168.1.110:26015

So - is there something special about port 2006?
