    Does anyone know why sshd listens on port 6010 when someone is ssh'd into
    a box? I generally use mindterm to remotely log in from a windows machine
    to my FreeBSD machine, but when using a UNIX machine to ssh in directly I
    noticed that netstat said something was listening on port 6010 and
    sockstat said that something was sshd. This doesn't happen when mindterm
    is used. The only reference I could find to port 6010 in the mailing
    archives were a few people who guessed that it had to do with X Windows,
    but that's not correct because X isn't even installed on this FreeBSD box.
