Guru's Can any one explain why I am getting the message to root as given below and what is the remedy? I have built a server using PCQ(Redhat)7.1 distribution. My understanding is that one of the machines is generating some sort of traffic which is resulting in this message. I can identify the machine from ethernet card number but why is beyond my understading. Thanks in advance. sudev
