The client claims that they are not running Appletalk (548) but I'm not sure whether to believe. We haven't been able to get console access to that machine to do any further investigation (but have blocked it upstream). Of the above services, most look legit from what I can tell with the exception of 548 and 1025-1027
Most probably your client has been rooted. Among above services, following are especially easy to hack: - netbios (brute force attack on Administrator account) - http (whole lot of exploits, running on nonpatched IIS) - sql-server (default empty password for 'sa' account; brute force attack if password is not empty) I think you client have no idea what's going on their servers, and they will keep claiming that "everything is fine" till they find their data at the competition site :/ From above list its almost obvious that they do not have a clue about security and should not be connected to the Internet.
