Unknown service


hi all, I need to check and block unknown service on my gateway box...

I don;t know what it is, when I try...
Code:
[root@gwbox ~]# nmap -p 1-65000 gwbox | grep unknown 
43176/tcp open  unknown
[root@gwbox ~]# chkconfig --list

Do a "netstat -pan" and lets examine the output of that.

Is that port exposed to the internet? Can you scan from another machine on the LAN and then from outside the LAN?

Also, are you running NFS on the LAN?

it's this normal or not (does I'm (my box) being cracked ???) or I'm soo paranoid ??? so what must I've to do with my iptables ???

I also checked /etc/services, this unknown service always on not registered port, it's this virus?

thanks in advance for any idea...

I've not run NFS in like 7-8 years, but I'd thought that some of the services associated with NFS generates traffic on random ports (which is why it is difficult to configure a FW to allow such traffic). You may want to read up on how NFS' services work. I'm almost positive I read something to the effect of NFS services spawning port connections that may appear to be suspicious but is not.

The rpc.statd server implements the NSM (Network Status Monitor) RPC protocol. This service is somewhat misnomed, since it doesn't actually provide active monitoring as one might suspect; instead, NSM implements a reboot notification service. It is used by the NFS file locking service, rpc.lockd, to implement lock recovery when the NFS server machine crashes and reboots.

Given your profile says Fedora, you should be able to lock down the ports used by nfs related services as described here: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/centos-...-server-ports/
