Actually, when I figured out that those ports are always above 1024 and below 5000, as I've said in my post, I started scanning only this range, and every time the results were similar. And the only service listening on my host is nullidentd.

But now I know what I was observing, see Fyodor's answer: <20021224191816.GA10153@core.lnxnet.net>
