Hi First time on the list. I fired up FC1 yesterday to update from Fedora 
Legacy. Before I had a chance to do this I saw a lot of incoming traffic on 
Gkrellm. Netstat -a showed it had been initiated from FC1. First there was a 
connection from:
192.169.0.228   32772         ( yoda.easynet.fr )            ESTABLISHED
This ran for about 15 mins.
Then.
192.168.0.228   32795        ( www02.eis.inet6.fr )         ESTABLISHED

Please don't access these sites. They are here for info only, and may be 
really dodgy.

To my knowledge I have never been on these sites, but tried them when I saw 
them on netstats output. The first appears to be a file server with Linux 
stuff on it. The second said in large upper case letters "YOU SHOULD NOT BE 
READING THIS PAGE".

I installed rkhunter-1.2.8.tar.gz. Ran it, but it didn't find anything 
suspicious. Tried to update the DB, but I have some problems there, and it 
can't update the DB, it's complaining about mirrors, and there are no mirrors 
in /usr/local/rkhunter/lib/rkhunter/db.

I've booted up FC1 again tonight, and immediately started Ethereal. After 
about 40 mins I started getting incoming traffic again. Ran netstat -a , and 
got:
tcp    0      0   192.168.0.228:32777     www01.ies.inet6.fr:http ESTABLISHED

This traffic ran for a while. The last ouput from netstat -a after the traffic 
had ceased was:

tcp    0    0    localhost.localdo:32778   localhost. localdom:3310  TIME_WAIT
Interestingly there is an entry:
tcp   0     0   localhost. localdom:3310  *:*                           LISTEN

FC1 is now getting security updates from Fedora Legacy, so Redhats up2date 
would not be phoning home.

NTP is running on the machine, but again, I know the servers it's accessing, 
and only a few bytes transfer each time they're accessed.

The only other app is Clamav's Freshclam getting updates, but as 2 different 
sites were being accessed this doesn't make any sense.


Anyone any suggestions? Perhaps I'm just being paranoid.


btw. I also installed rkhunter-1.2.8.tar.gz on 1 of my FC2 installs, and 
ran /usr/local/bin/rkhunter --update before doing anything else. This updated 
the DB ok, and running rkhunter -c showed an all clear.
