Hi,
can anyone tell me please what port 113 is used for. Cheswick and
Bellovin say it
is called "auth" and is generally safe. I see alot of requests to this port
from various locations. Is this
something to be alarmed about. We are running an ANS Interlock version 4.0 on
Solaris 2.5. The message I
get in my log files looks like:
Oct 24 14:36:51 inbound unix: FROM=199.171.006.012, TO=192.104.069.008,
PORT=113
, PROT=tcp, MSG=Unused Port Probe
Thanks,
