lsof -i port entry and how to remove it

Post by cefnllys » 2015/07/26 15:57:19

After running lsof -i on my Centos 6.6 server I spotted the following line:

smtpd 38886 postfix 25u IPv4 11990271 0t0 TCP hosting.mydomain.com: smtp->server4.soproseuprazer.com:51973 (ESTABLISHED)

Is this malware? and how do I get rid of it?

server4.soproseuprazer.com is busy sending email to your server. This does not look malware to me.

How to stop it - stop sending them email!
You can query who their mail server is by using the command: dig @8.8.8.8 IN MX soproseuprazer.com (which'll query Google's DNS server).
You can find out information about the company by using whois (although that is not guaranteed).
