Solved...it was actually as easy as looking at the configuration options of
iptraf...turns out you can put it in promisc. mode and viola...didn't take
long to see one host going nuts.  turned out to be someone backing up to
Arsenal Digital's ViaRemote, but this helped to quickly narrow it down to an
IP and port then it was just a matter of a nmblookup by ip to see who's
machine it was....


Thanks,
Steve
