Attack on Port 54178?
Question:
Firestarter has just detected an attempt to connect to my Port 54178.
Anyone know if this is an attempted attack? I as far as am aware have nothing running on that port?
Answer:
Most likely a random port scan. To make sure nothing is running on that port you can simply:
Code:
netstat -an|grep 54178
Hopefully this will return nothing, but if it does you can type the following to see what is actually running on that port.
Code:
sudo lsof -i :54178
My guess is you are fine and it's a random scan...
