hi there,
yesterday I wanted to experiment something with iptables, so I set up
my cisco soho 77 to become transparent and route all inbound traffic
to a pc on my lan, 10.10.10.33 .
So I opened Amule and tried to connect to a server, then shut down it
in about two minutes (just to analyze some packet).
Amule was set to 4662 TCP/UDP to have a highid (active connection)
however, it's about three hours that I've shut down the application,
and I see a load of packets dropped, in linux with iptables and in
windows.
here's an extract from windows firewall:

The funny thing is that *mule uses per default tcp/4662 - udp/4672,
I've changed this value in preferences (tcp-udp/4662 same port), and
as we can see packets arrive on udp 4662, as my choice.

I'm wondering why I still receive those packets, *mule applications
are not running from hours, do you have any explanations? There aren't
any machines active on my internal network than mine.

Thanks

Just a guess but I assume since you did run it for a few hours there are
still servers looking back at your IP address still expecting it to be
sharing files. After a bit it will die down again.
My son runs a Bittorrent client downloading anime movies. Even with his
computer down for a while my router still logs hits on the appropriate TCP
ports. Guess this is the same thing.

eMule/aMule use all this ports: 4661/tcp 4662/tcp 4672/udp 4665/udp
4711/tcp 4242/tcp

I took it from a page on how to configure a firewall to use eMule,
but my experience trying just the opposite, stop it, it's that it
uses even more ports.

Regards.
