Hi ,
We connect to Data Stage through tunnel using port 31538 and F-secure client or directly by specifying the host name.

This was the same way we used to connect with server.After upgrading to parallel we are facing issues where all of a sudden we see two listeners for the same port 31538 as shown below.

Any help on why we are having this issue would be appreciated.

Code: Select all

tcp        0      0  10.128.189.11.31538    10.191.42.187.3084      CLOSE_WAIT
tcp        0    172  127.0.0.1.52511        127.0.0.1.31538         ESTABLISHED

tcp        0      0  *.31538                *.*                     LISTEN

Thanks,
Vinod

Has someone specifically started an instance of dsrpcd intended to listen only to localhost (127.0.0.1)? If so, why?

Or it may have something to do with your specific tunnelling protocol - you'd have to ask your support provider about that.

Thanks ray. I will check that but i am skeptical as the dsrpc can only be started by admin or root .

This issue has been resolved. One of our shell clients F-Secure had remote forwrding set instead of local forwarding which started the second rogue listener process.
