How can I block dbxquery from listening on the network?

Hi,

I see error messages from the exec processor on my Splunk DB Connect installs where dbxquery complains about input that suspiciously looks like stuff from Nessus.

So it seems that dbxquery is listening on the Ethernet.

How can I stop that?

Me thinks it should listen only on localhost if it needs to listen at all.

 

thx
afx
