True I think we have fallen a little off track we are looking for problems within her box not the remote. Nobody said it was timing out they said it took 3 mins to connect. So that would then not be a problem with her routing rather one on the remote. It might allthough I doubt it. Try turning off dns on the freebsd box and connect to yourself. I don't care what your ip is. unless I have you blocked. So you try another connection. On Sat, 27 Mar 1999, Daniel C.
