767 Phone Book

Looking_Lost · 07-08-2003, 04:09 PM

Don't know if this goes in networking, general or what but seeing as I'm using Slackware.

Feeling my way around getting to know Slackware at the moment, did a netstat and there's a service on port 767 called phonebook sitting listening.

Can't find any other info out about it anywhere other than well, a service called phonebook runs on port 767.

Anyone know what it is/does? Just a normal network service?

Never heard of that one :}

Do a lsof to find out which binary/user has
the handle of it ...

Cheers,

inetd 591 root 4u IPv4 467 TCP *

honebook (LISTEN)

There's nothing in inetd.conf starting that looks like that, only thing I've got inetd starting is sgi_fam. There's another couple of UDP services listening, wondering if they are actually part of inetd? I don't think it's anything to worry about, just annoying - the continual pursuit for knowledge and all that jazz.

ha,it put a smiley in where the capital pee is
