RE: GFI False Positives

["Chris Serafin" <chris () chrisserafin com>]

I haven't had those issues, but I do know that GFI LanGuard very often
reports that the administrator account does not have a password.

Reports of Trojan activity, only when we are using a weird port # that a
Trojan uses.

Subject: GFI False Positives

Hello all,

I have been using GFI for some time now and most of the results turn out to
be false positives. 

Typically the RPC.ypasswdd and recently reporting my doom port (3127) as
open whilst its not. 

 

Any one experiencing the same problems?
