I posted about this on questions, but got no answer, and I think it might be over the collective questions head anyway. I have two machines, float and ben. Float is dialed up PPP to interport, ben is on a T1 from Sprint. I can ping and traceroute either machine from the other one, but I cannot use TCP-based services. The TCP handshake completes, and then the connection hangs. For example, if I'm trying to telnet to float from ben, the handshake happens, and then ben sends the same 27-byte packet for several minutes until it gives up. Meanwhile, telnet/ftp/ssh all work fine from a Solaris/SPARC box and from a Linux box, to or from float or ben. Packet traces available upon request, of course.
