I still didn't figure out the reason for this warning. There might be a rootkit, which I still didn't discover. Might it also be possible that rkh would alert if the smbd process itself acts as a client with a connection to another server where the arbitrary local port might be the port 2006? This would be a false positive. RKH should only alert on connections in the LISTEN state.
