[Zope] ZServer listening

I'm running ZServer 2.0.0 on a linux box. Looking at the output of
netstat -ap I have

Prot Rcv S Local        Foreign     State       PID/Prog
tcp  0   0 *:www        *:*         LISTEN      433/httpd
udp  0   0 *:1026       *:*                     606/python z2.py

OK, so why is Zope listening on some random UDP port (or am I
misreading this - is it not actually listening?) I'm fairly sure all
my database connections are through normal unix domain sockets. The
same process also appears to have some open socket connections, as
expected:

Proto Ref Flag     Type    State       Inode  PID/Prog   Path
unix  1   [ ]      STREAM  CONNECTED   2863   606/python @00000027
unix  0   [ ACC ]  STREAM  LISTENING   2866   606/python <zope>/var/pcgi.soc
unix  1   [ ]      STREAM  CONNECTED   15470  606/python @00000145

Can anyone shed any light on this for me?

Cheers

John
