Hi, I do periodic nmap scans on one machine that has some important services installed on it. I have also installed GNOME on that machine. When I log on to that machine, I do get the GNOME control panel to make the interaction a little more colorful. A port scan conducted during my login session show that different applets on the control panel use different ports on the system. I have blocked these ports using ipchains. The bigger problem is, on a different login session, the applets were using different ports. Is this normal behaviour of the GNOME applets? Thanks for any help or pointers. -- Subba Rao [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pws.prserv.net/truemax/ _______________________________________________ techtalk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/techtalk
