Does anyone know what this is? On ports 140 and 141 it is
reserved for the EMFIS Data Service and the EMFIS Control
Service but I can't seem to find what exactly EMFIS is.
Someone help me, please.

Hi Will,

Here is what I could find about EMFIS:

"EMFIS (Experimentelles Fuehrungsinformationssystem) was a military
management information system, developped 20 years ago at FGAN. It
was running on a Siemens Computer with the operating system BS2000.
Some years later an interface to the arpanet via TCP/IP was implemented
so that you could access the system via an ASCII line terminal (DEC) and
send the output to a printer, instead of using the normal Siemens page
oriented terminals. This interface was demonstrated 1985 with EMFIS
running at FGAN and the terminals on a mobile platform (packet radio)
stationed around Munich."
