I think he wants help with - and if I'm wrong, then I'll ask it, because I've been looking for something like this - what each port is used for. Does anyone know of a list or a resource that will tell me what all the ports listed in /etc/services are for, or what uses them, or a general list of ports and services that use them???

Don't look at what ports you should block, look at the ports you need open. Open only those that are necessary. Close everything else. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Clint Goodwin Sent: Sunday, March 17, 2002 4:47 AM To: security-basics Subject: Help With firewall ports Hi all, I was wondering what would be a good list of ports to block at my firewall.
