What is tn-tl-fd1 on port 476
Does anyone know what tn-tl-fd1 is running in svchost and listening on port 476 (Windows 2000)?
Can't find antything useful on MS site or Google

When you say "running in svchost", is that what it says when you run netstat -b?
"Svchost" is the "Server" service, so that doesn't tell you much, but you can narrow it down a bit further:
- run netstat -b again, and make a note of the number in the PID column (the Process ID), next to port 476.
- run the following command with admin rights, inserting the PID where indicated:
tasklist /svc /fi "PID eq the_PID"
That lists the programs or services using that PID. "tn-tl-fd1" is just the "well-known name" of port 476, it doesn't tell us which program opened it up.

I dunno what it is, but it is one of the IANA managed (well-known ports):
tn-tl-fd1 476/tcp tn-tl-fd1
tn-tl-fd1 476/udp tn-tl-fd1
# Ed Kress <eskress&thinknet.com>
SD
tn-tl-fd1 476/tcp tn-tl-fd1
tn-tl-fd1 476/udp tn-tl-fd1
# Ed Kress <eskress&thinknet.com>
WELL KNOWN PORT NUMBERS
The Well Known Ports are assigned by the IANA and on most systems can
only be used by system (or root) processes or by programs executed by
privileged users.
Ports are used in the TCP [RFC793] to name the ends of logical
connections which carry long term conversations. For the purpose of
providing services to unknown callers, a service contact port is
defined. This list specifies the port used by the server process as
its contact port. The contact port is sometimes called the
"well-known port".
