Now If I capture packet on the remote host and it comes out to be different ip address than the source host , then probably I am behind NAT. These hosts are having private ip address.

These hosts are not providing any Internet service and mainly responsible for processing around Gigabits of data . The processing continues for around 24 hours , During the processing , it utilizes around 100% CPU for around 4 hours and the connection drop happened during that time . Not sure what processig goes on during the time which takes all the CPU . The user we are talking here is the user under whom these processes runs . Hope it helps to understand the scenario . > > -- > Best regards, _ _ > .o. | Liege of Serenly Enlightened Majesty of o' \,=./ `o > ..o | Computer Science, Michal "mina86" Nazarewicz (o o) > ooo +--<mina86-tlen.pl>--<jid:mina86-jabber.org>--ooO--(_)--Ooo-- > Thanks Zaman -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-admin" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
