There is a squid process listening on a random port with protocol udp each time 
I start
squid and I'm not sure what it does.

 

 I do a "ps -ef | grep squid" and get

 

 root     22110     1  0 18:24 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/squid3 -D -sYC

 proxy    22113 22110  0 18:24 ?        00:00:00 (squid) -D -sYC

 

 I do a "sudo netstat -tlnup | grep squid" and get 

 

 tcp        0      0 10.6.7.0:3128           0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN     
22113/(squid)

 udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:36947           0.0.0.0:*                          
22113/(squid)

 

 I'm ok with the one listening on 10.6.7.0:3128, but what does the process do 
that's
listening on 0.0.0.0:36947?

 

 I checked syslog and found, "DNS Socket created at 0.0.0.0, port 36947, FD 8". 
 Is this a
DNS process of some sort?  Can I disable it?  If not, is there a way for me to 
make it
listen on a specific ip or interface instead of 0.0.0.0?

 

 I already disabled the icp process so it doesn't show up.
