I was able to actually connect if I waited a long time. Which means extending the timeout period of you FTP client, usually. After I established a domain name for my computer that was valid, the telnet works much faster. As in, I was able to instantly connect. And after I setup a BIND name daemon, my FTP connections were established almost instantaneously as well. I, too, asked about that problem on newgroups and on this list, but didn't not recieve any explanation. I would be curious to know why this happens, so if you could, let me know if you figure out the cause(s). Ty --- Piotr Kryszk wrote: > Dear Sir > I am a beginner in FreeBSD.
