try sniffing the traffic.

Code:

tshark -n -i your-network-interface

You could also check established TCP connections:

Code:

netstat -ntp

or udp:

Code:

netstat -nup

With that you should be able to see which process is using those connections.

Issue because of SAMBA server's bad configuration. Now issue resolved.
