Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Connection Attempts - Port 8047: msg#00197

security.incidents

Subject: Connection Attempts - Port 8047


I don?t know if anyone else is experiencing this, but I?ve noticed a
large number (100s) of connection attempts to port 8047 have been logged
on my router from no specific source.  I wasn?t able to find anything
definitively associated with this port.
 
Is anyone else experiencing this?
 
Does anyone know what it is?
 
I haven?t captured any of the traffic as of yet, just the syslog
entries.  The connections attempts are dropped at the router.  This is a
home network on a cable connection.  I ran netstat ?an and there is
nothing listening on that port.
 
Thanks for your help.
