Configuration
MLdonkey is a peer-to-peer software to sharing files. An open port tcp/4000 and the returning banner may indicate the existence of the telnet service. MLdonkey may be illegal in the environment.
Disable MLdonky if not allowed nor needed. If MLdonkey should run then filter incoming traffic on port tcp/4000 to prevent unwanted access to the telnet service.
