Strange connection attempts
Hi folks,
I've got a little bit of a problem with my main server that has been
driving me to distraction. Something is constantly trying to make a
connection to an external IP address using the internal interface. The
firewall is fairly tightly set up so I get log messages about these
attempts such as the one below:
Sep 15 10:54:39 compost kernel: Output: IN= OUT=eth1 SRC=192.168.0.1
DST=224.0.0.251 LEN=74 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=255 ID=1 DF PROTO=UDP
SPT=56190 DPT=5353 LEN=54
I have tried and tried to find out what is making these connection
attempts but to no avail. I wouldn't mind so much but I get thousands
of attempts a day showing up in the log files and I dislike not
knowing whats causing them.
Can anyone shed any light on this form me?
Many thanks,
Graham
