    auth is tcp port 113 associated, at least in most setups I've seen, and
    can be disabled by editing /etc/inetd.conf and commenting it out, it's a
    tad different for say a redhat system and others using xinetd, but, not
    all that touch to close;

    properly edit the /etc/xinetd.d file corresponding to the service in
    question, particulrly the disable = line.

    What is interesting is that your system responds to udp port 113....

    Thanks,
