I've just loaded RELEASE 4.0 on a PC that had been running 3.3. I wiped it out and loaded from scratch. When I telnet in from some computers the login process is quick and painless, but from others there is a strange delay. In the delay case I get the banner and login prompt without delay. I enter my userID, press enter, get the password prompt without delay, enter my password and then wait ... sometimes several minutes before it gives me the motd and a shell prompt. I have no idea what to look for. Also I can't ftp in or out reliable. Usually when I try to make an incoming ftp connection I get some delay and then "Connected to debughost. " and then nothing for a long time then "Connection closed by remote host. " When I try to ftp out I get no response for a long time, then it finally procedes to give me a login prompt. Also, when I do and ifconfig -a I see some devices I don't understand: gif0, gif1, gif2 ... they seem to be related to IPv6 stuff that I didn't think I asked for. Are these normal, optional, standard with RELEASE 4? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send instant messages with Yahoo!
