Ports 42 TCP/UDP were used by an older name server protocol than DNS (which uses 53 UDP/TCP). IEN 116, written by the late Jon Postel, if you want to look it up. The sockstat and netstat commands (e.g netstat -a | grep LISTEN) should tell you if something's listening on that port or not. -- Juha :-? -----Original Message----- :-?
