Port 2000 is also the default port for the program "Remotely Anywhere". It is a remote administration tool for windows NT. The program opens up port 2000 for http. If you want an https connection when -- remotely administrating -- the I believe the default port for that is 2002. "L.A. Smith" wrote:
Hello! I have had hundreds of complaints from one user about port scans on

2000 and 2002? Thanks!
