I followed a suggestion from PorkChop to restore my original resolv.conf and see what happens. I restored resolv.conf to its original value and rebooted. The UDP traffic to port 137 has stopped.

I'd *greatly* appreciate any additional suggestions you might have as to how to debug this. _______________________________________________ Mid-Hudson Valley Linux Users Group http://mhvlug.org http://mhvlug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mhvlug Upcoming Meetings (6pm - 8pm) MHVLS Auditorium Dec 5 - Open Source Show and Tell Jan 2 - TBD Feb 6 - DBUS Mar 5 - Setting up a platform-independent home/small office network using Linux
