Have just run netstat -A on my SQL Server and seen an established connection from one of our workstations on bmcw000340.domain:close-combat.

My google-fu is failing me and I can't find out what this port is for... does anyone know?

It looks to be TCP and UDP port 1944:

Was wondering more what close-combat was... What it's used by or for... – Paul D'Ambra Sep 22 '10 at 11:38
Port 1944 is above the Well Known port numbers so it's probably a service or application that happens to run on port 1944 and is not actually close-combat, whatever that is. You can find out what service\application\process it is by running netstat -a -b -o which will list each connection, what process has established each connection, and what PID is responsible for each connection. – joeqwerty Sep 22 '10 at 12:16
