nmap shows open UDP port 113

My friend asked me to see if I could scan or penetrate his firewall.  He =
only told me that it was a Linux box setup as a firewall running NAT to =
hide internal IPs.

- I did a nmap -O and a nmap -O --fuzzy but it said "too many =
fingerprints match for accurate OS guess"
        but it did tell me that TCP port 113 was in the closed state
- so I tried a TCP reverse inet scan (nmap -sT -I) and it still gave me =
same info as this port was closed
- so I tried nmap -sU and no results
- then I tried nmap -sU -p 113 and it said that UDP port 113 was open !!

I was then able to netcat to it (nc -u ipaddress 113) and I verified =
that I was connected with a netstat.

While connected via netcat I tried sending it commands like (ls, cd .., =
help, echo) but got nothing.


Is there anything that can be done with this connection ??
Or is there anyway to find out what internal IPs are behind it ?


Thanks,
Bill
