GNOME'e nterm service

[Christian Marillat <marillat christian wanadoo fr>]

Hi,

Package: gnome-session
Version: all versions
Severity: grave

-- Description of Bug
 GNOME-SESSION makes available the "nterm" tcp/ip service in port 1026:

--> netstat -anp | egrep 1026
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:1026            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      295/gnome-session  

 There is no documentation on the nterm service, including its purpose
 and security issues. I first reported the fact at the genesis of the
 GNOME project, about two years ago. I hope this time there will be
 a public answer.
