Hi, I too have noticed this problem running nmap 2 on debian linux 2 (2.0.34), I find that it often shows active ports on the target which are actually only active on the localhost upon which nmap is running. I get this with my port 6000 X relay and my HTTP proxy on port 8081. Not sure why this happens on vanilla tcp scans... regards G Takacs Istvan wrote:
Hi,
Thanks for everyone, who answered to my
question!
I didn't mention that our web servers behind
a Solaris based firewall (FW-1)!
That's why I was very surprised when I saw the
resoult of the scan (The web servers are on
NT IIS 3.0):
No ports open for host (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
Interesting ports on www.mysite.hu (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx):
Port State Protocol Service
22 open tcp unknown
53 open tcp domain
110 open tcp pop-3
143 open tcp imap
We never enabled that ports above. On our firewall
just the 80 and 443 ports are enabled to the servers.
Are that open ports real, or just a bug in nmap? And why
missing the enabled ports from the list?
I don't understand.
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Istvan
