Eric already covered the nothing-phones-home case.

When you turn on your OmniOS box, utter:

	netstat -an | grep 10926

if it shows a result, then there is a process on your OmniOS box listening on that port.

IF the netstat shows output, then find out which process has it open:

	sudo pfiles `ptree | awk '{print $1}'` | egrep '^[0-9]*:|10926'

Most of the output will be:

478:    /usr/sbin/syslogd
481:    /usr/lib/ssh/sshd

But you may see an extra line under a process with the matching port.  It'll look like this (I used port 22 for an example):

481:    /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
        sockname: AF_INET6 ::  port: 22

Hope this helps,
Dan
