Anyone have any idea on what could cause spurts of connection attempts to
the loopback address:
franky# grep 127.0.0.1 /var/log/all.log | head -3
Jun 28 15:07:30 <kern.info> franky /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:1214 from 127.0.0.1:4891
Jun 28 15:07:30 <kern.info> franky /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:1214 from 127.0.0.1:4892
Jun 28 15:07:30 <kern.info> franky /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:1214 from 127.0.0.1:4893
franky# grep 127.0.0.1 /var/log/all.log | tail -3
Jun 28 15:07:46 <kern.info> franky /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:1214 from 127.0.0.1:1051
Jun 28 15:07:46 <kern.info> franky /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:1214 from 127.0.0.1:1052
Jun 28 15:07:46 <kern.info> franky /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:1214 from 127.0.0.1:1053
franky# grep 127.0.0.1 /var/log/all.log | wc -l
132
franky#
franky's main jobs are sendmail, named, and squid.
