I'm in the process of harding our JSS and found an oddity when running a port scan.

Open TCP Port: 999 garcon

lsof -i :999 shows

COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
rpc.rquot 580 root 6u IPv4 0xe5770fc9e1920153 0t0 TCP *:garcon (LISTEN)

Does anyone know what this process is and why it has an open port?

    Is your JSS running on a Linux server? If so, it is most likely a freedesktop.org thingy (XFCE in particular)

    No Linux, just 10.11.1 updated from 10.10.5

    Turns out I've got this running as well on my 10.10.5 server. The more you know.

    Reading around, it might be related to 3rd party support of remote filesystems (http://linux.die.net/man/8/rpc.rquotad), but I don't use NFS. I do have a Promise Pegasus connected with the Promise Utility installed. Or maybe it's something that gets added in with the OSX Server Package?

    Interesting, I also have a Promise Pegasus. Never seen it before with Server.app but not really been looking.. Might check another build to be sure..
