The two programs tcpsuck and udpsuck run out of the Inetd daemon on
unused ports. They log the contents of packets or connections to these
ports. This allows you to read the contents of the network strobe
attacks on your machine. It also slows the strobes down, as they think
you're actually running a service on several ports when you aren't.

For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.
