I have a freebsd 4.3 box (bsd) on a home network connected to a linux/windows (linux) dual boot machine. Linux has two NICS, one doing the Roadrunner CableModem, the other the local network. I got IP MASQUERADE working; bsd can access the internet via linux. but connecting to bsd frm linux using ssh and ftp is reallllllyyyyyyy slllloooooooowwwwwww. Sometimes the ftp times out. but ssh eventually connects. Something to do with DNS Reverse lookups, I think. bsd's /etc/hosts has in it all the hosts on the network. same with linux's /etc/hosts bsd's /etc/host.conf has in it order hosts, bind hosts.allow looks ok. I am perplexed. inetd -wW is running in the working. any ideas? thanks in advance To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
