My first guess is that there's a network problem. Try this: run "netstat -rn" and "netstat -r" and note the time difference (if any) If there's a considerable time difference (-rn is immediate, while -r takes a while) then it's like that faulty DNS config is the problem. Just about all the programs you describe as being slow are dependent on network services. If you start "top", is that slow as well? (top does not access the network in any way that I know of) If the test doesn't indicate network problems, you may want to monitor top, systat and/or other programs to see if you can pinpoint the cause of the speed problem. Feel free to post results of these commands to the list if nothing jumps out at you. > My servers stats > cjhost# uname -v > FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #0: Tue Apr 15 00:59:34 EST 2003 :/usr/src/sys/compile/COLONEL > cjhost# > > DELL poweredge 2300 > DUAL PII 400 > 512 RAM > 4 Dell lvd drives -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
