On my Ubuntu 11.04 install on laptop (amd64 arch) as well as desktop (x86 arch) on the office wired LAN (Intranet, not connected to internet), there is a constant 6-15 kilobytes/second data down happening. The LAN works normally at all times, but even with no activity this data down is running. I checked with internet connected wifi on laptop and a USB dongle on both, but there was no such data transfer in idle conditions. It doesn't happen when on Windows 7.
Is there a tool to find out which port or software is taking this data? I tried netstat but couldn't make a headway. Searched on ubuntuforums but found nothing close enough. Can somebody please guide me how to go about it. -- Sanket Shah -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
