"ps -ax" output.


13560  ??  Is     0:00.00 portmap 218.49.183.17


Now ive denied portmap from /etc/hosts.allow ...however accrding to the
above ps listing ...this IP managed to make a connection to portmap ..
what portmap used for ?? and does this mean the box has been compromised ?


thank you in advance for any help
