I'm running Mandriva 2006.
Why does netstat show several lines similar to this:
192.168.0.3:53431 frontal2.mandriva.com:http TIME
tcpdump shows lots of communication going back and forth ie 15:52:44.768682 IP 192.168.0.3.53453 > frontal2.mandriva.com.http: . ack 2 win 1460 <nop,nop,timestamp 557020 8658803>
Is there a process which is running that is doing this?
Puzzled.

One app that do so is Network Monitoring ( /usr/sbin/net_monitor ) that do it to check if the connection is working.
Network Monitoring start if you left-click on network applet in the system tray in the panel (KDE).

Thanks Mhn.
I checked and it was network monitoring. My paranoia levels are stabilising again.
