Portscan reporting port 9991 open

2007-12-25 5:31:00

Hello

System: V440 running solaris 9, kernel patch 118558-11
No other applications running at this time
Sun Security toolkit run in default, secure mode.

The problem: Our security administrator is beating me up about port 9991
being open when she does a nmap scan of my box. I cannot find any config
files that control this port (9991/tcp issa).

What is the consequence of closing this port, is there a way to close
it, or is it necessary for the port to remain open? Any help is
appreciated. I have a suspicion that the issa port is opened / used by
her tool, but I can't prove it yet.
