Subject: [gentoo-user] Strange local connection requests from my laptop
Date: Sat, 24 Jan 2009 21:50:18 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49bf44f10901242150i463728b5k38faed69309725d7@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
My network's firewall is rejecting a bunch of attempts by my laptop to
reach 192.168.x.x systems which don't exist. The requests are from
and to very high port numbers. This must have to do with the p2p
software I'm running (transmission), but I thought it was pretty
creepy. Is that sort of thing expected from p2p software?
