Hi, Will.

IAD3 is some form of routing protocl, iirc, but as the port is
non-priviledged (above 1024) any users on the system can bind to
it. I think it's unlikely that you'll find IAD3 having anything to
do with that particular bind - perhaps look into running a command
that can show bound ports and the binaries used. Have a look through
/etc/inetd.conf, and play with 'lsof -n | grep 1032' if it's still
a mystery. lsof is at ftp://vic.cc.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/
and is Very Useful. :-)

HTH,

~C.
