Hello,

I run rkhunter from time to time and have warnings about the diff between
sockstat and netstat like this:

[11:33:31] Warning: Differences found between sockstat and netstat output:
[11:33:31]          Sockstat output (ports in use): 0 1124 22 25 514 587
[11:33:31]          Netstat output (ports in use): 22 25 514 587

the diff ports in sockstat are:

$ sockstat | fgrep ' 0 '
root     ipmon      695   0  dgram  -> /var/run/logpriv

$ sockstat | fgrep 1124
guru     ssh-agent  1125  3  stream /tmp/ssh-KldJtKCKwQMi/agent.1124

Why is rkhunter complaining about them?
Thx

	matthias
