RE: [cobalt-users] Can someone explain to me why list.cobalt.com keeps connecting to me on port 113



Jane,

Port 113 is an IDENT port.  Their server is probably just trying to check to
make sure you are who you say you are.  Nothing to worry about.  If it
bothers you that much, just allow that IP address on port 113.  Case fixed!

Thanks

I have been subscribed to the users mailing for quite a while now from an 
address that lives on my Raq4i.

Everything used to work fine but now list.cobalt.com keeps connecting on 
port 113 of my box and portsentry keeps blocking it and dropping it into the

deny list.  Why is list.cobalt.com doing this?  Should I keep 113 on my 
portsentry list?

Any advice?
