Compaqs site recommends stopping the Insight Manager and web-agent services
in control-panel, this alone doesn't stop port 2301 from showing your
machine stats.  You must also disable the surveyor service, this takes down
the page and stops polling the machine.

Subject: Compaq Insight Manager Proxy Vuln
Importance: High


Impact: Serious

Compaq Insight Manager has a serious configuration issue which allows the
use of the software as a proxy server.  No logging is performed on either
the OS or app., making this a perfect anonymous proxy.

Rec: Disable Anonymous connection to agent and server, block port 2301
inbound and outbound at network gateways.

Reported to Compaq 14/03/01, advisory released 19/03/01.
