Services & Firewall port settings
In my HpM370n Mce2005 system32\drivers\etc\Services (dated 7/30/2003)
I've 2 entries for systat
systat 11/tcp users #Active users
systat 11/tcp users #Active users
In IANA wesite, services defined shows the second systat being udp.

Because this definition of port numbers allowed I/O is a basic security
issue, where is there a smaller list for home users? For example, what do
I need Doom, Radius, or SQL(shudder quiver,?) etc. for? Or telnet for that
matter, if I never use it? Does removing an entry from here result in a lack
of resolution by my computer,and more dropped packets than there now
are or should I copy this into "Permit only" in Advanced Tcp/Ip filtering?
Would appreciate an answer to this reasonable question.
