Transmission trying to connect to hosts but no torrent running

Post by alke »

Hi,

I downloaded Transmission today and fired it up. My Little Snitch is constantly giving me dialogs about hosts that transmission is trying to contact. Had I any torrent downloading, this would be normal behaviour but there are none listed or downloading. This prompts the question: what is Transmission doing and why is it trying to connect anywhere? All hosts are from different subnets so there is no common denominator. Some of them are knocking on sqlexec-ssl, unihub-server and bctp ports.

What is this?
