I recently installed RHL 9 onto a old box I had just to verify the media and take a practice run on the install. So now I have a second RH system on my network. The first one is RHL7.3 and is running all of my production services.
I have noticed that since the RH9 system was installed and running that I am seeing FTP connection in my logs.
Throughout the day yesterday, the RH9 system made 136 FTP connections to my RHL 7.3 system and I have no idea why. I did not setup anything that would do this.
I have never had two Linux systems running at the same time on my network. Does anyone know if by default Linux will see Linux and try to FTP for some type of file sharing, backup, or whatever?
Both systems are behind a firewall with very few ports open at all.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank You
