Sporadic network info on terminal


Hi,

I have a problem that I get sporadic network info on the terminal.

The sample of info is below. The info comes for sure when I login. I can only login via iKVM because ssh fails because of this info output.

It also pops up anytime while I am logged in. I have no idea where it is coming from.

Desparately need help.

Thanks.

I am running centos 5.5
Sample of out:
IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:01:5c:42:c0:41:08:00 SRC=69.144.102.198 DST=255.255.255.255 LEN=328 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=50583 PROTO=UDP SPT=67 DPT=68 LEN=308

Then you're behind the times. CentOS-5 is at 5.8 now.

I doubt that's the case. Run 'ssh -vvv user@hostn.ame' to see more nfo.

That's DHCP broadcast traffic.

Check your /etc/rsyslog.conf for what traffic it sends to /dev/{console,tty}, and add a line "dmesg -n1" to your accounts shell resource file. See 'man dmesg' for more.
