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?
