Re: Question on Netstat Display

[Chuck Lewis <clewis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Neil,

I MEANT to note that those IP addresses ARE our addresses and I can identify
each PC by the address - sorry about that !

So what would be opening a Telnet session ? These particular PC's are located
either at sites or in areas at sites where the people barely know how to turn
the PC on (and I do NOT mean that as mean as it probably sounds - we have been
a VERY behind the times company technology-wise but are catching up !)...

Thank,

Chuck
