Hi,

I just noticed that named is listening on port 32768 UDP on all IPs.

Any reasons why?

Regards,
Saman

Where did you notice that? When I run:

# netstat | grep named

I don't see anything.

Hey,

Just as a side note on ports...

For RedHat systems, take a look at this file:

/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range

Basically, that's where a range of ports is defined that the OS will use when a local TCP/UDP connection is needed.

You should see 32768 as the first entry for the range.

Right, thats fine. But is it supposed to LISTEN on that port?
