I can see in an xfce4 panel plugin that there is constantly a small |
| 22 |
amount of incoming/outgoing traffic to/from the affected system when |
| 23 |
there is no reason I know of for it. netstat doesn't show anything |
| 24 |
that jumps out at me although this is the first time I've really used |
| 25 |
it. All of the current netstat connections appear to be UNIX as |
| 26 |
opposed to Internet. Should I paste them in? |
