OK Googling help:

[04:38 nirvana:/home/david] # lsof -i tcp:443
COMMAND  PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
cupsd   1896 root    8u  IPv4   7293      0t0  TCP *:https (LISTEN)
cupsd   1896 root    9u  IPv6   7294      0t0  TCP *:https (LISTEN)

cups??

	Now the question is what do I do to fix it? Currently, cups is started as one 
of the last things:

DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network hal named @netfs @ntpd @sshd @dhcpd @crond 
@avahi-daemon @postfix @mysqld @dovecot @httpd @hylafax @samba @cups @sensors 
@upsd kdm)

	I guess I'll try taking them out of background processing.

	The over 'Arching' point (no pun intended) is how can we make sure that 
updates, that do not change any packages by adding/deleting, do not kill a 
primary part of a box? And, why this box and not the backup?
