There is also an auth server listening, providing me this:

# nc 194.xx.x.xxx 113

 : USERID : UNIX : ekwaxtjm

Auth server returning garbage date = Compromise, especially when not
prodded.  I'd provide you with the nessus plugin that explains this but
it looks like tennable has destroyed what used to be a useful nessus.org
website.

Short answer, the machine is owned and should be format/reinstall
treatment.

-Peter
