Our /etc/services doesn't have any >entries for port 22 in it. ssh uses 22 for the main server, and will also allocate ports in the 6000 range for X client forwarding. (This can cause problems for those who allow users to create additional local X servers.) Adding a line like: ssh 22/tcp # secure shell might be a decent idea, just to make netstat output look better, but isn't required for the server or client to work.
