Re: What are these ports for?



Hi Jörn
- this explains it. I even have a little WiFi-router between my laptop
  and the server, maybe it silently filters that. Anyway - I am happy
that there is nothing open on the server. I thought this 'filtered'
means some exploitable ports of unknown origin on my server. 

All fine - thanks a lot!
