stv4rn0 Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) Running Mandriva 2008.1; after a startup there is a quite a bit of network activity going on for no apparent reason. Netstat shows this: user$ netstat -a --program --tcp Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 13 192.168.1.10:50400 mirrors2.kernel.org:ftp ESTABLISHED - user$ netstat -a --program --tcp tcp 0 0 192.168.1.10:47093 mirrors2.kernel.org:56637 ESTABLISHED - tcp 0 26 192.168.1.10:50406 mirrors2.kernel.org:ftp ESTABLISHED - user$ netstat -a --program --tcp Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 6 192.168.1.10:34550 mandril.creatis.insa-ly:ftp ESTABLISHED - tcp 4200 0 192.168.1.10:59656 mandril.creatis.insa-:32338 ESTABLISHED - Is this some software update check going on in the background? Would anybody know what process is responsible for this? Can this be placed under user's control?

stv4rn0 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 try to do the netstat as root so all process name will display Didn't get much more info apart from indication it's the "wget" running the connection, but i didn't start it. I would be much more confortable if i knew what is going on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medo3891 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Check the running processes, if you find urpmi.update running at the same time wget is running then this is the system checking for updates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must have been urmpi.update - i've just found its entries in /var/log/auth.log. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
