I am curious about how many open ports the average distro exposes.
 List your open ports using the following command:
 netstat -lnptu
 Here are my open ports (I don's use a distro):
 Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:53            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      215/pdnsd
udp        0      0 127.0.0.1:53            0.0.0.0:*                           215/pdnsd
 That's all I need for my workstation.
 Note that "netstat" may not be available with that putrid abomination
knows as systemd.
 Use whatever equivalent.
 

I get 12 open ports. 6 of them have status of LISTEN.
For example, one of the whose status isn't mentioned is this:
udp6       0      0 :::34964                :::*
Have no idea what these all mean.
