Hi! I'm experiencing a strange problem with mpd 3.8. I've installed it on a FreeBSD 4.6-p1 box as a pptp MS compatible server to allow Windows clients to connect to our internal LAN. Connection and authentication seems ok, but when I do some "big" transfer the session locks. Client is a WinXP Pro machine. (I'll try also with a W2K and W98 boxes a.s.a.p.) Example, using WinXP's telnet client I successfully telnet into the above FreeBSD, but if I do "ls" into a "big" directory, or a simple "ps ax" or "top" the telnet session hangs. It works if I do a "w" or "ls" into short directories. I guess is not a telnet client issue since I tried also with PuTTY and Telnet98 and both have the problem. Interface ng0 on server reports a MTU of 1498 but I think this problem is symptom of a MTU/MRU discrepancy problem... If I connect to the server from another FreeBSD with "pptpclient" it works fine. Is this a FAQ ? Have someone an hint ? much-detailed mpd log file available on request ;) Hoping in your kind answer :-) Many many thanks in advance! -- bye!
