Network activity when the wireless is switched off

ntu929 · 02-03-2012, 10:07 PM

Hi All,

i am having ubuntu 10.04 LTS on dell inspiron 1545. i see some network activity i switch on the wifi button. I am NOT CONNECTED to any network still the netstat returns the following results (i am truncating the output due to space limitations).

Code:

by analysing the output i have tried to remove the contents of /tmp. These contents (including the directories) get removed only after logging as root. However, these same directories reappear after i do a system restart.

Some of the applications such as firfox and Totem movie player also shutdown after some unspecified intervals of time.

I think my linux system is being affected by some malware/virus/trojan. If this is the case, please tell some good antivirus/firewall for this system (Ubuntu 10.04)

Thanking you in advance,

You have connections from YOUR MACHINE to YOUR MACHINE. No need for a wireless connection to do that. Besides, connections are in FIN_WAIT2 and CLOSE_WAIT. In case connections where from outside your machine, that would only indicate those connections were active BEFORE you turned off your wireless.

That is normal, if you do that with Ubuntu installed in other computers you will get same output.
Many of those are services that runs in your computer and are waiting the user to make use of it.

It is an example:
Without connection try this:

Code:

$ ping 127.0.0.1

and this:

Code:

$ ping localhost

Then tell me how you can ping something if there is no connection?
