netbios
I ran a scan against one of my win2k boxes here at work and it comes up with a port 139 which is the netbios on tcp. Now when i try to connect via net use \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\ipc$ it tells me my box isnt found? I have a firewall so i assume my box is safe from netbios attacks. i assume right>?

Hrrrm,
If you have a firewall working, a port scan shouldn't find port 139. Were you scanning the win2k box from another computer-- or from the same computer?

A portscan on localhost [127.0.0.1] will always reveal open ports since a firewall doesnt block ports, but close them.... And your computer is almost always set as a trusted zone (usually under 0.0.0.0)
