Hi, Noticed my servers modem TX RX lights blinking rapidly in unison. The server is a W98SE machine with modem share software runnning. My system is SuSE6.3 Would someone with more experience than I have a look at this 'netstat' output for me and explain to me what was going on here. It don't look good. Am I right. If so what do I do about it.
