Hi all,
I've noticed on my firewall log a couple of tcp connection attempts (from
different IPs) with port 6000 as the source port on the remote host and port
7212 as the destination port on my box. Is there another application besides
XWindows that uses port 6000 and that someone would be using to try to
connect to me?

doubtful - it's the destination port that counts

I'm not concerned about, obviously my firewall is working.
But I thought if I asked, I might learn something. Thank you.
Also, a question about list etiquette. After someone answers your question,
is it ok to post a thank you message?

yes it's ok - probably more important to say this resolved my problem to
leave tracks for others that may go down your path and perhaps can find
it in the archives - if it's particularly a troublesome problem...
adding [SOLVED] to the subject is a good thing to do too.
