try running a network sniffer like iptraf, keep it
up and watch the packets..then use lsof or fuser
to try to map the ports to the program(s) that
are trying to use the connection.

also reccomend disconnecting the system from any LAN
incase some machine on the LAN is generating the packets.
or keep it up the network sniffer will catch it.

or firewall the box and have the firewall log the
packets.
