Hello All,

I have a sneaking suspicion the my router, running smoothwall GPL 1.0 
patched to patch 5, (they are up to 8 I know), seems to be running really 
oddly. I can't  access the web remote admin service and the only services 
that are open are the following (taken from NMAPWin).


Starting nmap V. 3.00 ( www.insecure.org/nmap )
Interesting ports on siphon (192.168.1.1):
(The 1599 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
Port       State       Service
53/tcp     open        domain
222/tcp    open        rsh-spx
Remote operating system guess: Linux 2.1.19 - 2.2.20
Uptime 12.115 days (since Wed Sep 24 10:53:39 2003)
Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 5 seconds

Normally there are lots more, and I never recall using DNS on 53, actually 
never recall using DNS at all. I have just done a reboot and the same scan 
came up which is not right. I have read in the last week about some 
vulnerabilities that I am assuming my Smoothie was vulnerable to.

I give my permission to people on this list to do a security scan on my 
machine, if they think it would be of any use for informative purposes. I 
am a bit lost at the moment, so any advice would be great.

My IP is 210.49.33.240.

Thanks again.
