I have the following ports open on our server. Several do not look right to
me. I used a Linux Security boot CD and Nmap to scan all our addresses for
open ports. Any ideas?

Interesting ports on (10.253.10.1):
(The 1634 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT STATE SERVICE
25/tcp open smtp
80/tcp open http
88/tcp open kerberos-sec
110/tcp open pop3
119/tcp open nntp
135/tcp open msrpc
139/tcp open netbios-ssn
143/tcp open imap
389/tcp open ldap
443/tcp open https
445/tcp open microsoft-ds
464/tcp open kpasswd5
563/tcp open snews
593/tcp open http-rpc-epmap
636/tcp open ldapssl
691/tcp open resvc
993/tcp open imaps
995/tcp open pop3s
1026/tcp open LSA-or-nterm
1029/tcp open ms-lsa
1058/tcp open nim
1178/tcp open skkserv
1234/tcp open hotline
3268/tcp open globalcatLDAP
3269/tcp open globalcatLDAPssl
3389/tcp open ms-term-serv
8081/tcp open blackice-icecap
10000/tcp open snet-sensor-mgmt
38292/tcp open landesk-cba

TIA,

jwkh

Hi,

Most of these services are expected to run on Exchange server. If not used,
you can stop some of these services (e.g. you can stop pop3 or pop3s or nntp
if these services are not used in your environment.

Some of the services that do stand out are running on TCP ports above 1024
e.g.
- 8081/tcp open blackice-icecap
- 38292/tcp open landesk-cba
and few others.

Check what is actually running on these TCP ports. You can e.g. use TCPView
tool from www.sysinternals.com. It will tell you what process is using these
ports... Once identified, make sure that there are only services that you
install and need on the server. If you did not install them check your
server and try to determine how they got there.

Thanks for your response. I found 8081 is used by Symantec's Exchange
Anti-virus management application. I'll get TCPview and do as you suggest.
