Network ports UDP 42000-49000 randomly clobbering roommate's Vista firewall

Hi all, just got my first shiny new iMac! Installation and updating software was a breeze. All current there. The only 3rd party software I have at this point is Firefox. No screen savers, no downloads. I grabbed all the software updates at work, and brought the computer back home, and dropped it on my network. No problems.
UNTIL my roommate starts screaming incessently about me port scanning him. News to me! I disable BonJour per notes on topic http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6724968 and still getting random "attacks of doom" (note sarcasm) on UDP ports 49000-49999 randomly. Disabled every type of sharing I can think of - iTunes, Safari, etc. No dice, still happening.
Anything else I'm missing? I should note that while this is MY first Mac, I was in Apple iApps support back in California, and I was also factory-trained on Leopard 10.5.0 before I left to move back up here to the soggy Pacific Northwest, though I never got to use it myself before I left in October 07. (Hi, team!) So while 10.5.2 is new to me, neither the OS X fundamentals or network issues are new to me at all.
Please help! Thanks all

  • Can Appletalk be active on two network ports for printing?

    Here's the core of my question: Can I keep Appletalk active on my Airport network port (in order to print to a wireless print server on an HP Laserjet 2100M) and simultaneously keep it active on my Ethernet port (in order to print to a Brother HL 2700CN networked through my router)?
    Nothing I have read gives me to believe I can have Appletalk active on more than one network port. If that is the case, my second question would be:
    I there some other way to print to either printer on the network without having to turn off Appletalk manually on the ports not being used?
    Here's the configuration I'm facing
    G4 Quicksilver 10.3.9
    HP Laserjet 2100M with wireless Belkin DP-311P print server
    Brother HL-2700CN wired to Belkin Wireless-G router
    I would appreciate any help on this, even if it's the simple response, "No, you can't print to both without manually de/activating Appletalk."

    for file sharing between computers running 10.4.x and 10.3.x.
    actually, not for that either. 10.4 has dropped support for AppleTalk-only File Sharing to make way for Intel Macs and their protocols. 10.4 does still support AppleTalk printing.
    AppleTalk would be required to print to older Apple LaserWriters that do not support LPD/LPR printing. In all but two cases, the printers have no Ethernet port, so a Bridge device or software would be required:
    Personal LaserWriter NTR
    Personal LaserWriter 320
    LaserWriter Select 310
    LaserWriter Select 360
    LaserWriter 4/600 PS
    LaserWriter IIf
    LaserWriter IIg (Ethernet)
    LaserWriter Pro 600
    LaserWriter Pro 630 (Ethernet)
    Some third-party wireless Access points do not pass AppleTalk packets at all, and cannot be used to print to that class of older LaserWriters.
    In 10.3.9 and previous, AppleTalk may still be used for File Sharing with older Macs.

  • LaserJet Pro 400 MFP not working on the network port that works HELP !!!

    I have a new LaserJet Pro 400 MFP (M425dn)    USB works fine.  When I remove the USB and plug it into the network Port no network can be found - It doesn't pick up any activity.  So I test the network with my laptop ( connectivity is confirmed ). The network port is working properly- I plug in the LaserJet Pro 400 MFP (M425dn) and restart it -  no network activity. I tried several ports in the front office and the printer can't connect to the network.  BUT HERES THE FUNNY THING .  If I take the printer to the back room where the router/switch is  and plug it directly into the switch
    ( the same port as the front port )   it works !!!!!     so why doesn't the printer work at the front office network port,  where all the other devices work just fine using the same port ?  But it will work, at the  router/switch  using the same port  lol    this is drving me crazy  
     any help ? ? ?

    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

  • Sun Cluster with Netapps - iSCSI quorum and network port

    I am proposing Sun cluster with Netapps 3020C.
    May I know
    1) OS is Solaris 9. The SUN OSP says that we need to obtain an iSCSI license from Netapps. Is this the iSCSI initiator software for Solaris 9 to talk to the NAS quorum? Or do I need to purchased a 3rd party iSCSI initiator ?
    2) We provide 2 network ports for the Netapps private NAS LAN. Is it a must to cater another dedicated network port for the iSCSI communication with the quorum?
    3) If we need purchase a 3rd party iSCSI initiator, where can we get this? I have checked Qlogic and Cisco, they are both not suitable for my solution.
    Appreciate your help

    Hi,
    1) OS is Solaris 9. The SUN OSP says that we need to
    obtain an iSCSI license from Netapps. Is this the
    iSCSI initiator software for Solaris 9 to talk to the
    NAS quorum? Or do I need to purchased a 3rd party
    iSCSI initiator ?Have a look at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-7957/6mn8834r2?a=view
    I read the "Requirements When Configuring NAS Devices as Quorum Devices"
    section as this is the license for the iSCSI inititator software.
    So you need to enable iSCSI on the netapps box and need to install a package from netapps (NTAPclnas) on the cluster nodes.
    2) We provide 2 network ports for the Netapps
    private NAS LAN. Is it a must to cater another
    dedicated network port for the iSCSI communication
    with the quorum?Have a look at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-0580/6n30eahcc?a=view#ch4_quorum-9
    I don't read such a requirement there.
    3) If we need purchase a 3rd party iSCSI initiator,
    where can we get this? I have checked Qlogic and
    Cisco, they are both not suitable for my solution.
    Appreciate your helpI don't thibk you need such a 3rd party iSCSI initiator, unless this is stated in the above docs.

  • Hp compaq d610 d40 laptop network port doesn't wake up

    I have tried looking for a fix for this and can't find one so if there is one and i've missed, it my apologies but basically...
    I have a hp compaq d610 model d40 and with the basic windows xp installation and the default drivers (hp) on, when the system goes into stand and then is brought out of the standby mode everything wakes up except for the network port and the only way to get this to wake up is to go into device manage and scan for hardware changes or reboot.
    I have tried different drivers, bios changes (not update) with no luck but strangelly enough the other 3 makes and models of the same laptop work fine.
    Now, before I look into bios updates has anybody come across this?

  • Can you split the wired network ports through a sub router in the time caps

    I have recently switched my office from PC to Macs, (MacBookPro and IMac, with a Time Capsule (1Tb).
    I have the three wired network ports allocated to some newtwork based equipment and was wondering if I can put an network splitter in (such as a multiport D-link) to create another two wired ports?
    Thanks for any response!

    Hello JeremyHeighton. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Yes, you can add an Ethernet switch to any of the Time Capsule's LAN ports to increase the number of available LAN ports for additional wired clients.

  • How can I change network port configuration default setting?

    Hello,
    I am having trouble connecting to the internet. When I try to connect, it dials, rings, and then has a long tone, then disconnects. Preferences>Network>Assist Me>Diagnostics>Location>Network Port has Built in Ethernet chosen. I unchoose it, choose Internal Modem. It goes on to try to connect, than asks me if I have DSL or Cable (I don't) I choose no, asks me if there is anything else to restart, no, I choose. It then says to check configuration. I go back till the location page then continue, continue, then it connects. It won't stay selected to Internal Modem. I have checked its box and dragged it to the top (and unchecked and dragged Ethernet to the bottom). This happens 90% of the time but not always. I can connect to the internet, but have to go through this. I don't have Built in Ethernet.
    Thanks,
    Maria

    Open Network preferences. Select Internal Modem from the list and click on the Configure button. Click on the PPP tab. Fill in the required information for your dial up ISP including your username and password (for your dial up account.) Check the box to save your password. Click on the Apply button. Click on the TCP/IP tab and select DHCP from the Configure IPv4 drop down menu, click on the Apply button. Click on the Modem tab and select the modem from the drop down menu that corresponds to the one you are using or have installed internally in your computer. Click on the Apply button. Quit Network preferences. This should have you all set. Use Internet Connect to initiate the dial up.

  • Which network port do you use on Neo2 Plat ?

    Do you guys use the nvidia network port or the realtek gigabit network port?...which is better

    I also read that the NV port had less overhead somehow, and might be preferred if you only needed one connection.  Unfortunately, mine was plagued with short delays when browsing and frequent disconnects while gaming or downloading.  BIOS and driver updates did not help.  I also tried the manual override on speed/duplex and other settings with no improvement.  So, I use the Realtek with no problems whatsoever.  I disabled the Nvidia LAN in BIOS, along with all my other unwanted onboard systems.

  • I have 2 IMacs and MacBook Pro- can not work on FCP simultaneously when my network ports are on (open). How do I go about changing this?

    Hi!
    I have 2 IMacs and MacBook Pro and can not work simultaneously on FCP on all workstations when the network port is open. Can anyone help me on this?

    Did you purchase Final Cut Pro from the Mac app store? Or install it from disk? If from disk, you may have installed it on all machines using the same serial number, and using all of them simultaneously violates the license agreement. If you purchase from the App store the licensing is different and that may not apply.

  • Primary network port (en0) is not reporting its hardware address properly

    We have always had no problems with watching instant movies on Netflix until today for some reason, called Netflix and they said to contact Apple. We tried to reinstall the player and everything but they found out the "primary network port (en0) is not reporting its hardware address properly", not sure what that means. Since my phone support is expired they won't help me on the phone, so I'm hoping someone might have a solution for me here. Thank you.
    Here's what the netflix tech support email said:
    During the course of troubleshooting your experience watching instantly from Netflix on your Apple computer we discovered that your primary network port (en0) is not reporting its hardware address properly. The Microsoft Silverlight player that Netflix utilizes for watching instantly requires the correct hardware address of this network port to play back digitally protected content. The primary network port is typically the Ethernet port on the computer (with the exception being the Macbook Air) and reasons for playback failure can include hardware failure of the port itself or incorrect software configuration.
    Please contact Apple for assistance with properly configuring the network interface(s) on your Apple computer at http://www.apple.com/support/expert or contact your local Apple Store for an appointment.
    Thank you for choosing Netflix,

    I have the same issue on a MacMini with a defunct Ethernet port. The primary port is en0 however it's an Apple a/b/g Airport card and apparently that combination isn't seen as valid by silverlight.

  • NAS connection with Exadata on Network Port

    Hi,
    What I found on exadata and NAS.
    Can I connect the database servers to external storage?
    Yes, you may use the network ports on the database servers to connect to external storage via NFS or iSCSI. However, the Fibre Channel Over Ethernet (FCoE) protocol is not supported or allowed.
    My question is : What would be impact on performance if we connect Exadata with NAS on network port as NFS?
    Does any one using ? I want to have all backup on disk and from disk to tape kind of.
    Thanks

    If you can afford it look at using zfs over infiniband for the best bandwidth if you go for 73xx or 74xx models. You will also get dual controllers for full redundancy.
    Oracle's benchmark backup figures of 7 tb an hour are based on this setup If you go for a standard or 10 gig nfs connection you will get considerably slower speeds.
    Thanks
