Disabling 9006

Hello,

We currently upgraded our server to Snow Leopard 10.6.4 and was trying to disable port 9006 on the server.

We tried modifying the file /Library/Tomcat/conf/server.xml and commented out the following adding the first and last lines and restarting the server

<!-- <Connector port="9006" protocol="HTTP/1.1" connectionTimeout="20000" maxPostSize="8388608" redirectPort="8443" /> -->

This seemed to however make the auto-logout last only a minute making it very annoying.

Is there another way to make it so that nothing is listening on that port? It is already blocked by firewall, but per our security group we should turn it off.

Thank you,

Justin

We are already blocking it on the firewall, but I would like to just make it so that it is not listening on that port.

Thank you,

Block it on the server's firewall.
