Topic: Closing Ports

[Tez]

Hi, I've recently visted grc.com and ran the probe ports and found that the following ports are open.

FTP - Port 21
SMTP - Port 25
IDENT - Port 133
HTTPS - Port 443

I want to be able to keep the FTP port open but as the other services are not required I would like to have the other ports closed. Can anyone help me do this?

Thanks in advance
Tez

Search the forums for masq -- the procedure to do this has been discussed in some detail before.

I haven't had chance to try any of this but it might help.
