I am not sure if RH9 has some type of configuration that will look for "peer" systems and exchange info or data in anyway.
For safety, I have already taken the RH9 system offline until I can isolate the cause of the connections.

Any connection made by one machine to another without the express knowledge of the owner of the box is questionable, IMHO. You would have to check what services are running on the machine by doing:
/sbin/service --status-all
and checking to see if something got enabled that should not have. RH still has a long way to go in better tailoring the startup services in Anaconda.
