[cobalt-users] Portsentry unable to listen to UDP ports

["Zarrir Junior" <zarrir@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

     Hi,

     I´ve installed Portsentry three days ago. I found it strange not to
receive any Logcheck messages about UDP ports and, scanning through the
logs, i found this, right after Portsentry install:


 23:42:59 ns portsentry[14642]: adminalert: Going into listen mode on UDP
port: 31337

shutting down
May  4 23:42:59 ns portsentry[14642]: adminalert: Psionic PortSentry is

        Could this be a configuration error? Could this be that all these
UDP ports are closed/unavailable? How do i check this?
          Regards,
