I'm collecting port numbers which are open as shipped on NT.  Previously
I had commented only on NT Network services for login, and SMB fileservices.
If people could add into the list below I'd be greatful.

I also am looking for information on the SMB 'back door' as alluded to
by Bill Hancock @ Checkpoint-1, and Security problems related to the 
'NT-Authority Anonymous' activity.

There is no /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/services equivalent in NT, network 
services seem to be scattered throughout the four 'hive' files in
\winnt\system32\config (SAM, SECURITY, Software, System) reachable via 
the control panel apps or regedit32.

List of open ports on NT ws or svr as shipped(inaccurate):

echo 	         7	ping     
netstat         15	     
ftp-data        20	# File Transfer Protocol (Data) 
ftp             21	# File Transfer Protocol (Control) 
domain 	        53	nameserver # Domain Name Service 
finger 	        79	# Finger     
netbios_ns      137	# NetBIOS Name Service   !-- Typically UDP
                        !-- Also used by 'nbtstat' - Node Status Request
netbios_dgm     138	# NetBIOS Datagram Service  !-- Always UDP  ;)
netbios_ssn     139	# NetBIOS Session Service   !-- Typically TCP
sms_db 	        775	    
sms_update      777

New Firewall Predictions:

'Home/Personal Firewalls' coming for cable-modem spoiled PCs.
'Firewall Farms' as coming default corporate firewall configuration.
'Virtual Network Security' for home office links via internet as a 
  major firewall and architechtural challenge.
'Identity theft' as political push to _require_ Digital IDs.
Unrestricted digital and audio sniffing by law enforcement to be status quo.
