Hi,
using Ubuntu 11.10/Unity 2D. Using two network commands I have found out that cupsd deamon, looks like printing service, is running:
Code:
netstat -a -t tcp localhost | grep LISTEN
tcp 0 0 localhost:ipp *:* LISTEN
tcp6 0 0 ip6-localhost:ipp [::]:* LISTEN
and
Code:
nmap localhost
Starting Nmap 5.21 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2011-10-23 15:19 CEST
Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
Host is up (0.0069s latency).
Not shown: 999 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
631/tcp open ipp
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.44 seconds
It looks like a printing service is running. I don't use any printer on this PC and I would like to disable printing service to reduce security risk as much as possible.
How to stop printing service running on 631 tcp port?
Regards
