[opensuse] RE: Self initiated HTTP messages to www.kde.org
MY IPS system has been warning me of regular - time initiated http messages to www.kde.org. These messages are auto sent 24/7 even by idle Workstations. I cannot test a gnome desktop, however I think they may not be auto sent. http://users.tpg.com.au/adslmi38/linux/kde04_Jul_17_2007_14_36_32.pdf Does anyone know 1. Their purpose 2. What is in the self initiated http traffic. NB These messages are not looking for updates as their appears no functional ability to download only KDE updates. Update messages ARE self initiated at a designated time, however these messages are sent every 2 then 8 minutes 24/7. Any Ideas. P.S Please refrain from using the expression "digital Rights Messages" as this is not licensed software per say (sorry no acute symbol) See attached report for a 30 day period. Many thanks and Hi to all - have been away for a long time Scott P.S.S Please ignore this message if the attachment gets stripped as I will reformat another.

Looks to be a traffic report from your router. Check your router configuration. note: 198.168.1.1 is normally a router addr. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Is anyone using Kontact or Akregator Are they checking feeds from KDE.org? I believe kde feeds are set up as the default. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Does anyone know
1. Their purpose
See the source code in case of paranoia. (http://websvn.kde.org/)
2. What is in the self initiated http traffic.
Probably one of the dozens of KDE apps you are using is trying to get a sort of update, most likely RSS feeds, KDE is fully integrated with the network Use a sniffer if you want to see what is contained in the HTTP request. Systems talks each other always. firefox talks google, mozilla.org and probably to other places as well, nothing to worry about.

WTH are you talking about. ? geez.. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
