Epmap Connectionn Problem

C

Charms Zhou

There is one PC (WindowsXP installed) alway try to establish epmap
connection with our DNS/DHCP/VPN server(Windows2000 server installed). I use
command "netstat -ab" to see the result as below. I found this connection
established by Windows system services. I don't understand what and why this
happened.





C:\Documents and Settings\czhang>netstat -ab

I can only offer my theory , but is it possible you may have a network
protocol on your machine trying to obtain an IP address ?

Or possibly an application trying to resolve a host name via the DNS server ?

Typically if one machine starts misbehaving , I'd look at malware.
Possibly install a local firewall , the likes of SP2 or third party like
zonealarm etc.
This might pinch off unwanted network traffic , you can confirure the
windows firewall to log successful connections and dropped packets.

See what you can find...

1. The problem is still here after I change the machine's DNS server;
2. The machine is with SP2 and fire wall is on;
3. The port number connect to server's epmap port is protean.

1. The problem is still here after I change the machine's DNS server;
2. The machine is with SP2 and fire wall is on;
3. The port number connect to server's epmap port is protean. I found the
client mathine's port number is difference every time I use command
"netstat" on server.
4. Only the machine establish epmap connection to the server in our LAN.

I can only offer my theory , but is it possible you may have a network
protocol on your machine trying to obtain an IP address ?

Or possibly an application trying to resolve a host name via the DNS
server ?

Typically if one machine starts misbehaving , I'd look at malware.
Possibly install a local firewall , the likes of SP2 or third party like
zonealarm etc.
This might pinch off unwanted network traffic , you can confirure the
windows firewall to log successful connections and dropped packets.

See what you can find...

There is one PC (WindowsXP installed) alway try to establish epmap
connection with our DNS/DHCP/VPN server(Windows2000 server installed). I
use
command "netstat -ab" to see the result as below. I found this connection
established by Windows system services. I don't understand what and why
this
happened.





C:\Documents and Settings\czhang>netstat -ab
