How do I disable pine's attempts to access TCP port 514 which according
to /etc/services is the shell service?  It doesn't need to access port
514 for imap access but it still tries.

shell           514/tcp    cmd          #like exec, but automatic
syslog          514/udp

Jan 24 21:36:32 barn kernel: OUTPUT_t:IN= OUT=eth0 SRC=192.168.4.34
DST=192.168.4.1 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=55015 DF PROTO=TCP
SPT=1020 DPT=514 WINDOW=5840 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 

Every time I try to run pine I get the above message in my logs that
an attempt has been made to access the shell service remotely on tcp
port 514.
