get some perspective. It is doubtful someone can use reading the pmu
to hack into your machine. Of course, you should portscan your
machine - as you've done. Setup a firewall while you're at it, also
available *for free with DebianPPC*. If you're so concerned, don't
run pmud and/or *write true apm support yourself*.

You do have control, don't use pmud. If you still have doubts
run OpenBSD and go flame some perfectly nice people on that list
instead of this one.
