Hi all a quick question for all the w2k3 gurus out there. When doing a netstat from the command line on my w2k3 server i noticed a line with the following (servername removed)
TCP xxxxxxxx01:4718 67-133-239-29.dia.static.qwest.net:ftp

reason i was looking at this as our internet traffic grinds to a halt at the same time each day and was looking around for a cause. Would this sort of line in the netstat results be of any concern?
 
All this shows is that the host has established an FTP data connection with this 67-133-239-29.dia.static.qwest.net:ftp.
You have to figure out if there is a reason for the server to do so, if there isn't any, you may need to block traffic from this particular host/network.
In order to find out if your network bandwidth is being chewed up, you should be checking your router/firewall logs instead
