I've been getting this security warning for the past few weeks.
May  2 11:03:01 charm : Security warning : eth0 is in promiscuous mode.
May  2 11:03:01 charm :     A sniffer is probably running on your system.

1> How can I tell if eth0 is currently in promiscuous mode?
2> How can I tell what program is making it run in p mode?
3> The network connection for this machine has been messed up..
      i.e. While running a ftp server the outbound connections slow down to 
a crawl
every so often... I get disconnected from home while using ssh... Could this
p mode be causing this??

4> How can I fix this without reloading the whole system??

Thanks a bunch!

Bob
