    Yes, and? You give only this much of information to an unallowed
    access. If you want to hide everything you have, you should be
    blocking all ports, so that all are closed.

    And yes it's simple to write a script which would put that ports in
    stealth mode.

    If you aren't happy with what you get with the distribution, go
    ahead and change those scripts or lear about netfilter and do it all
    by yourself.
