automountd, backups.backupdb & ****t 111

by Mike <lightoflife@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 13, 2008 at 03:48 PM

I'm running 10.5.2 on a Mac Pro with Time Machine enabled.

Occasionally Little Snitch will alert me to auotomound wanting to make a 
connection with backups.backupdb via ****t 111. I've allowed it but not 
on a permanent basis.

I did some Googling and found that others have seen the same or a 
similar message but none have pinpointed exactly what's going on.  
Google led me to a January post on an Objective Development forum asking 
about it, but there was  only a "me too" post in reply. Both of those 
posters were using OpenDNS as am I (much faster than cox.net).

Several posters on a thread at Macintouch seemed to believe that these 
messages are ISPs redirecting to an alternate search page, but I can't 
for the life of me see how Time Machine is related to that. And I don't 
see it.

I'm not mounting any remote volumes such as Mac, NFS,or Samba shares.

Neither the console logs or firewall logs show anything that I think is 
suspicious.

Can anyone shed any light on this?
