Re: Trojans that use LDAP

If you're running unix, you might want to run lsof on that potential infected
machine to see what process is trying to get to that port.  netstat will show
you the port that is trying to connect to the ldap port, and you can go from
there.  Find the process, find the offender.

Are there any Trojans that communicate using LDAP?  A machine on our
internal network is trying to connect to
"email-ds-3.c3pki.ch" on destination Port 389?  That port (blocked by the
firewall) is ostensibly used for the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol,
but I know nothing about this service and I've been unsuccessful (using Sam
Spade) in locating any information about the destination address.  Is this
the sign of a compromise or something more benign?
