I just installed keepassx by apt-get.
when I'm running netstat,I found keepassx is listening tcp connections from public network(not 127.0.0.1)

why?

#lsof -p 3988
keepassx 3988 user 18r IPv4 67057 TCP *:39500 (LISTEN)
keepassx 3988 user 20r IPv4 67063 UDP *:1900
keepassx 3988 user 21w IPv4 67070 UDP *:39400

That's weird... It doesn't listen on any ports on Ubuntu 9.10...

Try to telnet to that port and see if You get a reply like "Welcome KeyMaster... Here's todays passphrases"...

You could also try netstat -an | grep 39500 to se if any (local) processes are connected to that port...

This is too bad. I have been holding off from passing all my passwords to one of the other Password programs available for the N900 hoping for Keepass to become available. I don't know of any one that has a Desktop counterpart. But this is scary.

nothing has been found.

Nokia-N900-51-1:~# netstat -an |grep 39500
netstat: no kernel support for AF INET6 (tcp)
netstat: no kernel support for AF INET6 (udp)
netstat: no kernel support for AF INET6 (raw)

Hmm ..I just tried mine...I open keepass and use the same command.

lsof -p 11125 | grep IP -> nothing

open the password file and again do the same thing
lsof -p 11125 | grep IP -> nothing

is the program doing a check for an update?

An update-check is not a listening socket.

Interesting I can duplicate it; but I'm not sure what is causing it.

However, I did do a verify the source code and checked the .diff patch provided and did a global search on the source code.

The source provided to Maemo is the EXACT same as what is downloadable from Source Forge.

The Patch is fairly simple; basically changes the path; changes the icon size and disables the systray code. Nothing "wrong" added.

I searched the source code also, my guess is that the socket is being opened by QT and not KeepassX.

Interesting, after updating to the new firmware, I can't duplicate the reported issue. I wonder if it was a QT issue or a bug in lsof/OS...

Can you all update to the new 3.2010.02-8.002 firmware and see if any of you can duplicate the original issue.

Nathan.
