first of all, -current is hardly the place to ask such a question (neither
is -security, btw).

now, a simple google search for 'port 16001' does wonders. it will tell you
that port 16001 is the esd default port which is normal for systems running
gnome. as for 111, there are lots of things that make rpc calls... pick one.
