NoNaMeR Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Why kernel_task process tries to establish some "random" TCP connections? Is it connected somehow with safari? Is it ok to block them forever?

NoNaMeR Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 It seems that network traffic for some apps goes through kernel_task...when I blocked it I couldn't get any connection in transmission, and also there were problems in safari and camino Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/67631-build-9a581-why-kernel_task-process-wants-to-establish-some-random-tcp-connections/#findComment-480959 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorty116 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Because the current Lil Snitch can't handle Leopard.
